| Notes: | -88 is a similar consistency to 84 -Excavation of possible pit, filled with similar material/matrix as 84. -Almost immediately, several objects (glass, iron tacks and nails, slag, bronze strip) recovered from context; the decision was therefore made to sieve part of the context, as we may be dealing with a refuse pit. -Shape of context morphed as excavation continued into more rectangular-shaped context, not semi-circular or oval as first thought. The rectangular trench (cut?) is 15-20 cm deep, shallower as it slopes up to the N. in a semicircle. Finds: glass, iron tacks and nails, iron slag, bronze strip NA-148: Bronze Ring Thin, flat reserved bronze ring. [Entered by K. Petrole 2016/09/07] | |
