Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the S. The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
Notes: | 7193 is part of the same destruction collapse that was excavated in 7094. We took it as a separate context to allow JH to draw the tumble of stones. This context is primarily stones, presumably collapsed from wall 7150. The large stone with scoring marks has a wheel rut measuring .52 x .12 m on the bottom. There also is a circular stone being removed (L .74, D .23) | |
