View of the materials used in the walls.

The exterior stone walls have been built using the stones found on site and new stone from the same quarry.

The walls include bits of ceramic from the site, as did the original wall, and features the relief animal stones around entrances. Pointing was tinted with local sand to work with the stone.

Terraces were laid with stone chosen for its similar color scheme, which along with old bricks as well as chiseled stone complement the overall design.
