Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
Notes: | 315 ia light yellowish brown loose matrix with a mix of small inclusions including tile, ceramic, bone and small angular pebbles. The east limit seems bordered by 312, a loose fill bordered by wall 311 to the east. This trench may be related to wall 313, a north-south wall the foundation of which was found at the bottom of 308 and seems in line with the end of this trench. The deposit comes down upon a yellowish layer. It seems to go beneath part of the north-south wall 316, under one big stone, but there are more stones visible coming out of the south baulk. | |
