Description

A view down onto an excavation at an angle, with a low wall of rubble stones along the left edge. Two pale rectangular stone blocks sit stepped against this wall, while on the right rough, crumbling masonry and rounded boulders rise from the earth surface. Dark soil fills the gaps between the stones.

Description, scan 2: Looking down onto an excavation, with a squared stone block and a lower stone step at left beside a bank of bare excavated soil. Rough-cut stone walls run along the edges at left and right, and a crust of pale material clings to stones at centre right. Rounded boulders and loose rubble lie in the foreground and in a cutting at upper right.
