Description

A narrow excavated trench runs away from the camera, its earthen sides cut in vertical faces and stepped down in tiers. Pale stone blocks and a small whitish object sit on ledges and in the floor of the cutting. Loose rubble, scrubby bushes and what appear to be stone walls fill the background above the trench.
