The Tower

All that remains now of the tower is a solid circular base built of limestone rubble. The base is founded at ground level, on earth and bedrock outcrops, where it has an average diameter of 7.60 meters. The stones on its face are as carefully fitted as unworked rubble can be, while the solid core is more loosely packed with stones, earth, and limestone chips.^[12] The face presently stands an average of 1.36 meters high, and it has a slight inward batter giving the tower an average diameter of 7.40 meters at the top of the preserved face. There is no evidence for a ground-level doorway into the tower, nor is there any trace of interior walls or chambers. The base appears to have been built as a solid platform.

The top of the base has been disturbed. All stones are loose, and a pit over a meter deep has been carelessly dug into the fill of the base for some purpose. As a result of this disturbance, no trace of the original top surface remains, but it is likely that it stood not much higher than its present overall height of 2 meters.^[13]
