Corinth Basket: Nezi Field, context 7077 | Collection: | | Corinth | | Type: | | Basket | | Name: | | Nezi Field, context 7077 | | Area: | | Nezi Field | | Context Type: | | Fill | | Title: | | fill of robbing trench of 7150 | | Category: | | Deposit | | Notebook: | | 1104 | | Context: | | 7077 | | Page: | | 0 | | Date: | | 2010/06/02 | | Stratum: | | 20% pottery, small and medium pebbles | | Description: | | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is well sorted. It is silty clay. | | Notes: | | We are excavating 7077 in order to understand the full extent to the wall revealed under 7074. At this point we hypothesize that the wall will continue to meet the stone structure in robbing trench 5802. This wall may have served as an external wall of the house, and may be connected with walls to its south and south of wall 5562 (inside the house). As PK excavates, the context hugs the north face of 5562. The stones do not actually seem to continue to the west. We interpret this now as fill of foundation trench. JH has come by and suggests that we may have a fill of robbing trench for 7150. | | Context Pottery: | | Fineware. pre medieval2 bodysherds. ; Cooking ware. collar rim stew pot (1000-1100)2 rims. ; Fineware. ww plain (700-1120), plate. 1 bodysherd. | | Pottery Summary: | | 4 frag(s) 0.02 kg.
