Description

A dark rock-cut opening sits at the base of a cut excavation face, with the chamber mouth framed by irregular stones or rubble. Pale, crumbling soil forms the walls on the left and right, and a floor of loose earth lies in front of the opening. No people or finds are clearly visible, and the interior is too dark to show detail.
