Description

A pit is cut into pale, crumbly earth, with rubble and soil forming its walls. At the back, several pottery vessels sit together on a ledge, including a large round-bodied jar, a tall-necked jug and smaller jugs. More vessels, some with handles, lie on the floor at the lower left, with broken sherds scattered in the lower right.
