Description

A shallow excavated trench runs diagonally across the frame, its dark cut edge visible at the back and left. Several rounded and flat stones lie on the trench floor and in the surrounding soil, and a pale curved fragment sits in the left part of the cutting. The ground around is dusty and uneven, with more stones scattered toward the top right.
