Stratum: | The soil is a dark yellowish brown with a whitish tint. | |
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 very poorly sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
Notes: | B5015 took the top layer of debris revealing a whiter layer on the W half of the area. The E half is only a reddish layer with 70% inclusions that appears to run under the whitish layer (B5016). The whitish layer is 2/3 of the area under B5015. We are continuing to remove debris from the pseudo-wall left by the 1961 excavations. This pseudo-wall takes the form of stones randomly placed on top of several strata of soil on top of a wall in this area. | |
