Stratum:   60% tile, angular pebbles, ceramics
Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the E. The soil color is light yellowish white. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   397 is a firm, light yellowish white matrix with many tiles, but not as many as 396. Other inclusions include angular pebbles and ceramics.
The tiles, as 295, lay horizontally but the soil is different, leading us to tak these in a different deposit.
Beneath and to the E is visible a yellow clay layer and some reddish/black clay (which is also over the yellow). This layer runs slightly into the robbing trench 396.
It now seems that the tiles are beneath the white / red to the E (see 395). We Stop.
