Idalion Acropolis

Description
A close view of a stone wall built of large, flat, irregular blocks laid in courses, with a narrow vertical gap or recess running down through the left side. Loose rubble and soil fill the joints, and a patch of pale sky shows at the top between the masonry. No people or equipment are visible; the wall fills nearly the whole frame.
