Description

Low walls of rough stones and large flat blocks stand in an excavated area of bare, dark soil in the foreground. Behind them, more wall lines run along the slope, and a rounded object, possibly a jar, lies near the wall at upper left. Loose rubble and stones are scattered across the ground under a pale sky above the hills.

Rubble walls and larger squared blocks stand out of the dark soil of an excavated area. In the foreground a flat stone slab lies at the left edge beside a low wall, and a row of big blocks runs along the right. Further back, more walls and a rounded jar-like object sit among rubble on higher ground under a pale sky.
