Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light greyish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is well sorted. It is clayey silt.
Notes:   6904 was recognised as much looser, greyish soil underlying the SE tip of 6875. Perhaps it was a remnant from a layer previously taken to the East? It revealed light reddish brown soil consistent with 6887.
Synchronisation error caused loss of pottery data once already read; retyped from a print screen, but some details perhaps lost.
