Description

A wide view across an excavated area at Ayia Irini, with low stone walls and rubble foundations running across the ground. A large squared stone block stands at the right, and earth heaps line the edges of the cut. In the background, several small figures are scattered across open, scrubby ground among trees under a pale sky.
