Description

In the foreground, a trench is filled with dense rubble of pale stones, with lines of larger blocks marking wall foundations. Earth sides of the excavation rise behind it, and beyond them stand flat-roofed buildings and a low wall. A tree grows at the upper right, and a small white structure stands in the middle distance.
