| Description: | The soil color is light greyish brown. The soil compaction is weakly cemented. The soil is well sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
| Notes: | This hard patch of surface, which had a reddish discoloration that appeared to show burning, was discovered to be unique from context 6628 while it was being excavated. It was distinguished by its coloration, inclusions, and compaction. When we excavated it, it revealed more of the same floor as the one that lay below 6628.. POST-EXCAVATION NOTE, 15-06-09, S.L.: Contexts 6663 and 6649, at least one of which underlies this context, were found to contain two joining coarse incised ware body fragments of the Frankish period, dating to the mid-13th century. These sherds will stratigraphically change the dates of every context that lies above them by as much as two centuries, of which this context is one. Until it is decided whether there is some other reason that this discrepancy might have occurred (e.g., these contexts need to be situated in a different place on the Harris Matrix), the dates will remain as they have been assigned on the basis of pottery/stratigraphy prior to discovering this discrepancy. | |
