Description:		Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is well sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:		We decided to reveal drain 232 and to draw it, sow we began removing the fill for its construction that lay above the capstones, approximately on the corner where drain 232 turns towards the courtyard. The deposit was located approximately where the drain turns east into the courtyard. Fill 303 is a small patch of soil. When it was removed, the capstones were revealed completely. We wanted to continue removing the fill for the construction of drain 232 alongside the SW side of the drain towards the road, but we noticed that the soil changed. It became darker and brownish, so we stopped digging and decided to change contexts.
