The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted.

It was excavated for the same reasons as stated for 6828. 6833 was closed when tile and brick were found, perhaps filling a cut that may have been a robbing trench of wall 6528, as suggested by Sanders. | | Context Pottery: | | Fineware. 7 bodysherds. ; Fineware. 4 bodysherds. ; Fineware. afrs1 rim. ; Coarseware. basin. 1 rim. ; Cooking ware. cloche lid. 1 rim. ; Coarseware. basin. 1 rim. ; Coarseware. amphora. 2 handles. | | Pottery Summary: | | 13 frag(s) 0.05 kg.
