Description

Low stone walls and foundations of several rooms are exposed in the excavation, some with flat stone slabs set on top and rubble scattered between them. Beyond the ruins, a flat plain with fields, scattered trees and a road stretches toward low hills under a hazy sky. No people are in view, and the print is mounted on a dark card.
