Stratum:   Mix of soil from foundation trench (mostly) with some admixture of loose soil from the 1961 trench.
Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the S. Bottom slope of the context is slight down to the SThe soil color is mixed. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   We left a small martyr between the area excavated in 1961 and the foundation trench (B 5060), which we excavated in this basket.
The soil is mixed but is mainly a continuation of B 5060 to the north.
We put the martyr here to avoid contamination of the foundation trench by the loose soil and unclear situation of the trench excavated in 1961.
