Excavation at Cholades, Soli, with stones and a cart
Description
The view looks down into a trench with a steep face of packed soil on the left and loose stones scattered across the floor in the foreground. Rough stone walls line the right side and back of the cutting, and a deep shadow fills the centre. At the top right edge a dark sloping object is only partly visible.
