Description

A round, bowl-shaped cut in the excavated ground fills the foreground, with a smooth floor and a raised earthen rim. Low stone walls and further trenches run across the middle and left, and a small upright stake stands near the right edge. A single person stands far off at the top left, partly cut off by the edge of the frame.
