| Stratum: | Inclusions 40%: roots, bone, ceramic (pottery and tile), stones (cobbles to medium pebbles, angular to rounded), shell. Soil forms clump with some pressure. | |
| Description: | Top slope of the context is level. Bottom slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
| Notes: | Change (cont.): The change was clear over the top of the wedge-shape, but disffuse to the E. and W. especially. EXCAVATION NOTES: Switched baskets to B37 because the soil was softer to dig, and the big cobbles and boulder inclusions came to an end. The basket was changed again to B39 when the soil became more compact. The hard surface formed a wedge-shape down from the N. and this wedge-shape was thus higher in the middle than on the E. and W. sides. | |
