Description

A rectangular structure with a raised stone rim is seen from above at an angle, its lower side in shadow. At its base, several pottery vessels lie in a cluster: a small jug with a loop handle, a vessel with a flat lid, a bowl and a large open jar holding soil. The ground is excavated earth, with a narrow cut running along the right side.
