Description

A dark cavity cut into rock lies beneath an overhanging rock face at the top of the frame. A scatter of broken pieces, some pale and some dark, lies on the floor of the hollow, with larger angular fragments heaped near the centre. A smooth rounded object sits near the lower right edge, and the surrounding soil is in deep shadow.
