Description

Seven people, men and a boy, gather around a circular stone block in a pale, dusty yard. Several men in shirts and trousers kneel or lean over an opening in the block, one in a pith helmet and another in a dark brimless cap. A boy in a light shirt stands at the right edge, and a wall of large rectangular stone blocks runs behind them, with cracks and flecks of damage across the upper print.
