Corinth Basket: Nezi Field, context 610 | Collection: | | Corinth | | Type: | | Basket | | Name: | | Nezi Field, context 610 | | Area: | | Nezi Field | | Context Type: | | Well | | Title: | | Well | | Category: | | Cut | | Notebook: | | 1103 | | Context: | | 610 | | Page: | | 0 | | Date: | | 2009/06/05 | | Description: | | The soil color is very dark yellowish brown. The soil is very poorly sorted. Structure materials: cobbles rooftile, plaster. Material size: 0.1x 0.05 m for the first course, larger below. Material finish: unworked; roughly hewn. Material bonding: hydraulic plaster. | | Notes: | | Structure 610 is a built well. The upper most course of the weel is a course of cobbles arranged in a circle. Below this course of cobbles are courses of roughly hewn blocks the upper most is slighly narrower in diameter that the cobble course though the walls of the well flare outwards as the well gets deeper. The exact style of the masonry is currently unknown as the fill of the well is only partially excavated (609, 611) and the inner face of the wall are coated with hydraulic plaster. The cut for the construction of the well cuts the floor that extends northward from the EW wall 376 and westward from the NS wall 306 into the scarp at 255.5 E. The full extent of the well and further descripition of the structure awaits further excavation of the fill of the well. | | Grid: | | 256.32-25.42E, 1004.2-1005.9N | | XMin: | | 25.42 | | XMax: | | 256.32 | | YMin: | | 1004.2 | | YMax: | | 1005.9 | | Site: | | Corinth | | City: | | Ancient Corinth | | Country: | | Greece | | Masl: | | 87.02m. | | References: | | Report: Nezi Field 2009 by Jody Cundy and Dina Boero (2009-06-19 to 2009-06-20)
