Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is clayey silt. | |
Notes: | 7170 fills the area along the north face of wall 5562. Excavation of this has revealed a few more stones of 7150. We are putting this context on hold until we can excavate 7171 (now not a cut but a fill with ceramic tile). We are changing 7171 from a cut to a fill, since we have found that the supposed cut along 5820 did actually not exist. We now close this context and continue the excavation of fill 7175 in cut 7176.. | |
