Description

A wall of rough, stacked stones runs down the left side of the excavation, with its upper courses exposed. On the right, a steep face of pale, crumbly earth rises above a dark floor of loose soil and small stones at the bottom of the cutting. The photograph is taken from above, looking down into the trench.
