Description

A deep cut in pale, dry soil slopes down toward a dark opening in the bank. A large pale stone block lies in the cut in front of the opening, and a small dark object is just visible inside the shadowed entrance. Loose earth and stones lie on the ground around the excavated area, with no people in view.
