Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the N. The soil color is mixed. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty clay. | |
Notes: | This patch is mixed with firm light yellowish white and dark brownish red silty clay. This patch was left at the S end of 402. 402 was a tile pile that has this (404) clay running up against it, most likely slump from the walls of the structure. The dark red patches are most likely dissolved mud brick, and these extend slightly over B73 (rob trench). When removed we find exposed patches of soft soil near the SE wall portion and some very hard patches near the NW edge, possible floors. | |
