Description:		Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light greyish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:		This is the fill of a posthole. It's a lare posthole and although it is cut into the same surface (context 483) as the smaller postoles located to the east, it's uncertain whether it is related to these because it is bigger and deeper than the othrs. This deposit was relatively clean., and thus rules out its possible function as a small dump. Perhaps itsfunction was relate to the burial of the adult female found directly S of this fill, between it and the N wall of the church's nave (Wall 20). Animal bones, 0.01 kg, thrown.
