Stratum:   Ceramics, tile
Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the N. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is clayey silt.
Notes:   Context 6322 is the foundation trench for wall 6313 in the southern part of the courtyard of the Byzantine house. Most of this wall has been robbed out except for a small patch ca. 1 meter in length. This foundation trench is cut by another foundation trench (6314; cut 6315), giving us evidence that wall 5285 postdates wall 6313. Unfortunately very little pottery was recovered from this context, which would be useful in giving a precise date for the construction of this wall.
