This is a ruin of a wealthyy house used long ago. If you look closly and the back wall, you should be able to see large squares carved in the rock. That's where they used to store their food and put candles to light up their house at night. Now look up to the left hand corner of the picture and you should see a line of six squares carved deep into the rock. That tells us that there was a house here. What they did was put a log into each hole making suport beams for a roof. Then they would stack grass ontop so the rain couldn't get inside.
