Description

The photograph shows weathered stone blocks and packed earth forming a rough wall, with a dark arched opening at the centre. In the foreground, large blocks step down in a terraced or stepped arrangement, and the sky is visible at the upper left. No people are shown; the scene is a close view of the excavated stonework.
