| Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the S. Bottom slope of the context is slight. The soil color is dark yellowish black. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
| Notes: | We decided to do B197 to determine the nature of the robbing trench that was discovered in B181. B 197 is below B181 and to the north of B142. The basket is immediately to the south of a rubble wall remnant. The area immediately to the North of the rubble wall will be examined in a different basket. The soil of B197 is soft yellowish black with few inclusions. In the southest part of the basket we revealed a very large rectangular stone.The limits of the robbing trench were very clearly defined in the east side of the basket, where the soil is red. In the west and south side of the basket the trech is also clearly different from the neighboring harder soils. But in the west side of the cross that the soil forms in this area we were not able to trace the limit of the robbing trench. We are going to examine this area in different baskets. When we closed B197 we did not reveal a wall except for the large stone in the south edge of the Basket. Some scattered stones are visible in the northern half of the bottom of the basket. Bones : Total count 23, total W. 0.23 | |
