Description:   The soil color is light brownish red. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is very poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   192 is darker than 193.
After the removal of head well (S191) a ca. 12 cm thick layer was exposed. Few pieces of pottery found in this layer. There is a worked stone (send to Pietri with pottery). The fill exposed below the smaller stone of the well head is similar in composition to doposit 192, but different in color. Because of this difference it was excavated as deposit 193. Context 192 came down upon bedrock, uneven bedrock with visible marks of working tools. There are two possible uneven cuts in the bedrock, but because of their irrepuable shapes no cut numbers have been assigned. They can be not intentional cuts.
