Stratum: | 30% tile, bone, glass, iron (nail), shell, lots of roots especially in the easternmost portion, marble volute | |
Description: | Top slope of the context is moderate down to the E. The soil color is reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. | |
Notes: | The softer, darker material along the North scarp of the Nezi area was taken out as 750. This deposit had a lot of tile, and a lot of roots and seems very disturbed, perhaps material that is slowly slumping down the scarp. In the West this area appears to terminate in a hard, redder layer that is very (much?) like the area immediately to the South, and which is similarly filled with amphora sherds with a distinctive, combed appearance. 22 May 2012: formation- slumped destruction?
