Description

Rough stone walls of uneven, flat-faced blocks rise on both sides of a dark, narrow opening in the middle of the view. The walls are partly collapsed at the top, with earth and loose stones packed against their bases. A thin vertical line runs down the right side, and the ground in the foreground is dirt and rubble.
