Description

A close view looking down onto a heap of large pale stone blocks, some tilted and stacked against one another, with a dark cavity opening between them at lower centre. The surrounding ground is uneven, pale and crumbly, with a layered soil face running diagonally across the left side. No people or tools are visible, and the photograph is taken from above at an angle.
