Description

A narrow channel runs down the middle of the excavated area, lined on both sides by rows of stones and rubble. Upright stone blocks and a stepped stone structure rise on the left, and a higher wall with dressed blocks stands in the background. The loose stones and earth around the walls show the excavation at an early stage.
