Unrealistic depiction. There’s nobody getting eaten by a crocodile.
One of my favorite crocodile-related history tales is when Ibn Battuta, a Medieval Arab traveler, is visiting Subsaharan Africa and, not knowing the local environment, goes to take a leak in the river. His way is blocked by a local who doesn’t speak Arabic, and Batuta thinks the fellow is terribly rude until someone who does speak Arabic informs him that the local saved his life, because there was a crocodile right there in the reeds.
I love this type of diagrams. Hope they are not going extinct
I’d be interested to know why they thought the “door” wall gap (in the right external wall) had a lintel, that seems like work and cost for no reward.
Oh that’s easy. That is part of a home expansion project. The courtyard walls eventually became part of the home’s outer wall as the family grew and made improvements to their home.
