Description

Excavated masonry in the foreground forms a stepped course of large, rough-cut stones set in loose earth, with a rounded stone block at the right edge. Behind it, low walls of rubble and stone run across the middle distance toward scrubby bushes and a hillside. A wooden post stands at the upper right against the sky.
