Stone foundations and walls of excavated ruins fill the view, with a long stone-lined channel running diagonally across the foreground on the left. A stepped block and a low wall stand in the centre, and a rough line of stones lies at the right beside bare earth. Low hills and a single small tree rise against the sky behind.
