TERRACES REACHING ALMOST TO THE SNOW 



Not only the terraces, but all of the higher slopes, appear to have raised crops in ancient 

 times, and cultivation continues in a few places that can be distinguished near the top of the 

 ridge. The broken slope near the middle of the photograph is on the side of a deep ravine 

 filled with a dense forest, which is spreading gradually over the neighboring slopes (see 

 page soo ).
