Description

Three people stand among excavated soil at Marion: a man in a cap and waistcoat on the left, a man in a wide-brimmed hat and striped jumper in the centre, and a woman with a headscarf holding a shovel on the right. In the foreground, two pottery vessels, one a small jar and the other a larger jar, sit partly uncovered at the edge of a dug pit. A spade and a few other objects lie on the ground, with a low mound of spoil behind.
