Excavation at Ayios Iakovos with stakes and stones

Description
A wide excavated area with pale, levelled earth surfaces cut into the ground, and several heaps of rubble and loose stones standing on them. Thin wooden stakes mark points across the site, and spoil heaps of darker earth lie at the top of the view. No people are shown, and the photograph is taken from the edge of the cutting looking across the dug area.
