Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the SE. The soil color is dark greyish brown. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is moderately sorted. It is clayey silt. | |
Notes: | After removing a very small fill in the context above, we came down on this very compact layer with flat-lying sherds that appears to be a floor. The soil is hard and grayish brown, with a dense concentration of large sherds. This level also slumps, sloping down some eight centimeters to the east. At the bottom of this context, we came down on another compact floor with heavy sherd inclusions. This surface is a lot more even on top than 5995. | |
