Corinth Basket: Nezi Field, context 6887 | Collection: | | Corinth | | Type: | | Basket | | Name: | | Nezi Field, context 6887 | | Area: | | Nezi Field | | Context Type: | | Fill | | Title: | | Fill | | Category: | | Deposit | | Notebook: | | 1104 | | Context: | | 6887 | | Page: | | 0 | | Date: | | 2010/05/11 | | Lot: | | Lot 2010-006 | | Stratum: | | Ceramic | | Description: | | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light reddish brown. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is well sorted. It is clayey silt. | | Notes: | | This context was revealed by the excavation of 6875. We initially started dry sieving all the material, but, because so little was being found (nothing, in fact, in the sieve!), switched to sieving every fifth bucket. Upon examining the pottery from 6870, however, - the first to be read this season, - we suspended excavation: the pottery was entirely Early Helladic and Late Neolithic. | | Context Pottery: | | Fineware. bowl. 2 rims.
