Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark greyish brown. The soil compaction is compact. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   Context 511 is the excavation of the fourth slumped fill located in the area bounded by walls 313 and 332. Context 511 was cut by the cut 510 for the pit located in the northen most area bounded by walls 313 and 332. It seems that context 511 is slumped fill of another pit, located south of pit cut 510.
The removal of context 511 showed that underneath it we have the same soil extendidng from the southern part of pit cut 510 to the southern limit of the larger and earlier pit (cut 513). We decided to close this context and proceed with the excavation of the next pit fill (512).
