| Stratum: | Pit Fill is medium brownish brown sandy silty earth with 20% pebbles and 20% cobbles, moderately sorted | |
| Notes: | B 6 is the removal of the area between B 4 and B 5. As discussed on page 5, this layer is most likely either the northern continuation of B 4 or it lies directly on top of the continuation of B 4. After removing B 6 and examining the stratigraphy of 2005-01 Pit B76 from NB 971, we determined that Pit 2005-01 (B 76) cut into an earlier pit. This newly found pit has a few layers in it which we will now remove. The removal of B 6 also uncovered a harder patch in the SE corner of B 6. We stopped excavating B 6 when the central area became darker and the SE part was lighter in color and quite compact. The central area we will excavate as B 7. The new pit is now 2006-01. Found bronze, glass and an amphora handle encrusted in coarse clay. See pg. 6 for top plan. | |
