Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is compact. The soil is moderately sorted. It is silty sand.
Notes:   This is another fill deposit beneath threshold 22. It contained some white (lime?) mortar on the surfaceon the surface of the fill, likely indicating an earlier threshold point than threshold 22. The fill overlays a layer of tiles which are likely representative of another threshold. The mortar mixed with this fill would serve to make the soil harder and more compact.
