| Stratum: | 70% large cobbles and tiles | |
| Description: | Top slope of the context is level. Bottom slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
| Notes: | We changed baskets when the fill became harder and less well-organized in orientation, otherwise the content of the fill is continuous with B5102. Cleaning of W22 (NB228) where it is cut by Bothros 6 (NB228) revealed that a similar mix of tile and large cobbles serves as a foundation for the preserved section of the wall. The inclusions (tile/stone) are in layers with soil between. At c. 0.15m down, the fill of the trench cuts a layer of dark red fill. The edges of the foundation trench remain clear. The foundation trench fill extends into the RT of W19 (NB228) and into Bothros 6 (NB228); we are stopping this basket since the fill in the RT is too wet to dig. Tile: 213 fragments, 56.3kg | |
