Description, scan 2: Low stone wall foundations of rooms are uncovered across the foreground, set in pale excavated soil with heaped earth at the edges. Beyond the dig, a plain with scattered trees rises to rounded hills and a higher mountain under a pale sky. Two small figures are faintly visible near the left edge of the excavated area.
