El Djem 'dungeon' orbs

(Lincoln, UK)

This photo was taken at El Djem Colosseum in Tunisia. The colossuem was regularly used as a gladiator areana and for chariot races, it was also used as a place to kill people who had committed crimes or moral sins. The underground of the colossuem was filled with lions who would kill and eat people who fell or were thrown down the hole (if they weren't already dead)and there was no way they could escape.
This photo was taken in the far left hand side of the underground tunnel. The end of the tunnel is a dead end and no-one had walked down there so no dust had been disturbed. It was also only in this paticular corner that I found the orbs. Every other photo I took contained no orbs (with the exception of one I took of the same corner). Although a few of them may be dust, it made me suspicious that somewhere so isolated there was so much dust, which is also very varied in type, which seemed highly unlikely. It also made me suspicious because only in this corner did I find orbs.
