Open stony ground in Wadi al-Samt during summer 634, with pale limestone fragments, dry grass clumps, shallow undulations, and low dusty haze over the retreat. The front spear’s iron point touches the Byzantine shield near its boss; the defender’s bent arm remains secured behind the shield by its leather grips. Both Rashidun fighters close both hands around their spear shafts, and the second fighter’s shield rests against his occupied forearm. The front spearman’s rear foot and forward foot meet firm ground; the second spearman’s forward boot lands among the limestone pieces. The defender’s left sole presses into the ground while his right heel cuts the named furrow, supporting the backward skid. Each retreating soldier has one pushing foot in contact with gravel, and the first soldier’s low shield remains attached to his forearm. The distant broken formation recedes behind the three foreground Byzantines; bodies vary in spacing and remain spatially separate. Dust begins at the fighters’ ground contacts and drifts toward lower right in the same direction as every cast shadow. The adult fighters are approximately 1.7 m tall; each ash spear is 2.4 m long and the struck shield is 0.9 m high.
