No photo could ever render the atmosphere of calmness, isolation, solitude of this site. I take the risk of qualifying it as poignant : if you ignore the very limited restorations, you easily have the feeling of jumping 5000 years in the past (give or take 1 or 2, counted from March 2015... ).

Indeed. Looks as if the chamber has just collapsed.
