Description

Low wall foundations and sunken floor areas of excavated rooms run across a stony, dusty site in the foreground, with loose stone blocks between them. A higher wall stands at the left, and a flat expanse of sea fills the background under a pale sky. Thin wooden posts, one leaning, stand at the right edge near the sea.
