Strange wall in rat caves at Klamath

First time out of the vault
Hello to all, my name is Erman.

I was playing Fallout 2 and I was at Klamath, doing the "Killing the rat god" quest, in rat caves. In second bottom floor I realized that, the wall on the bottom of map is little bit different, having strange graphics/sprite. Like a square, and the edges doesn't fit with other wall graphics. It's not isometric, facing toward to camera. It seems like hidden mechanical gate to a vault or something like a base. :D There are some animal bones and a dead body crushed under the boulders. You can see the little part of the dead body at where I point the cursor. I am really curious about what this thing is. I checked up the wikis, searched the internet and couldn't find anything. I am not so familiar with backstory or lore of Fallout universe. But even I am not, I should have found some info about hidden things in rat cave from some players with good knowledge of backstory.

Here is a screenshot

Maybe that was all for aesthetic purpose. Maybe that art was intented to show how bad that animals and dead body crushed. So artists drawed it in camera's view angle, but poorly, because the edges doesn't match well.

So, what do you guys think about this? :|

(By the way, sorry for possible grammar errors)

It's scenery. Sometimes if you 'look' at stuff like this with your cursor, a small description will appear in the left corner of the screen. In this case, it's obvious you are looking at the remains of a dead body.

Axonometric projections (iso-, di- and trimetric) have limitations. You are basically working on grids that do not allow for much variety. It's not perspective, it's that simple.

Also: Fallout is NOT isometric. It's trimetric.
