Description

Low rubble stone walls and foundations step across the excavated area in several levels, with an open trench in the lower left. A round stone-lined basin or vessel-like hollow sits at the bottom centre, and a green field with a bush lies beyond the ruins at the top. No people are shown; the stonework is rough and partly collapsed.
