ABSTRACT
THE site which is to be described in this chapter is In some ways the most remarkable which has ever come under the writer's observation. It is no exaggeration to say that it extends over more than fifty square miles, and that there are few places within this large area where it is possible to walk ten yards without stumbling on a wall, a building, or an artificial heap of stones. "There has been as much labour expended here as on the building of the Pyramids, or even more," was the remark of a visitor.
