| Title: | Clearing of top of wall | |
| Category: | Deposit | |
| Notebook: | 1108 | |
| Context: | 284 | |
| Date: | 2014/05/15 | |
| Stratum: | Inclusions of tiles, some sub-rounded coarse pebbles, pottery, and little bone (approximately 7%) | |
| Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light greyish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is clayey silt. | |
| Notes: | After having exposed the preserved western extent of the wall we turned our attention to a small clayey deposit still covering the top of the wall. We remove this deposit as context 284 and exposed the preserved top of the wall underneath. A large coin (2014-117) was found in this context during the cleaning of the top of the wall. Some pottery, bone, and iron was collected in this context. The wall running E-W now has its preserved top exposed from E106.45 to E111.07. It is still unclear what happened to this structure further W as there is no trace of it in the cut of the pit. Perhaps further excavation to the W of the pit will reveal its continuation. | |
