| Description: | The soil color is dark yellowish brown. It is clayey silt. Structure materials: Ceramic tiles. Material size: Avg. .09 x .10 x .01. Material finish: Squared tiles. Material construction: N/A. Material bonding: None. Features: Some reused vessels in the surface. | |
| Notes: | Context 6260 is an intact floor surface in the southern end of the courtyard of the Byzantine house. The percentage of tile on this surface is ca. 85%. We are weighing the tile from this context, taking one water sieve sample and dry sieving the remainder. It is believed at this time that context 6260 is equivalent to 6259 farther to the southeast. A tiny earspoon was uncovered in this context; also an iron scrap and a piece of glass. Below this surface was revealed another tile surface with several reused pieces of marble revetement. Context 6260 could relate to 2008 floor context 5764. | |
