Description

A close view down onto excavated soil at Ayia Irini, with stones and fragments scattered across the surface. In the centre, a cluster of pale bones lies partly among the stones, and a long bone lies at upper right. A small pale object stands out near the lower left edge, while the surrounding soil is dark and crumbly.
