Idalion Acropolis, stones and trees during excavation

Description
A large earthen mound rises in the centre of an excavated area, with pale stone blocks and rubble lying in cut-away ground in the foreground. Dark shadowed hollows lie between the stones on the right and left. Low hills stretch across the background under a hazy sky, with a few shrubs and a small tree or pole structure at the far right.
