| Description: | The context shape in plan is irregular. The top break of the cut is sharp. The sides of the cut are vertical. The break at the base of the cut is sharp. The base of the cut is flat. Truncation: truncated to the north by the pit cut 510. | |
| Notes: | Pit cut 513 is an irregular though roughly oval pit cut through the fill of a larger pit. It is truncated to the north by the pit cut 510, which may refelect an aborted attempt to dig a well. To the south the pit cut 513 is cut through a deposit of compact red soil that fills the large pit cut 517. To the north east, the pit cut 513 cut a deposit of redeposited mudbrick that itself sit inside a larger pit cut 517. The base of the pit cut 513 is formed by a deposit that contains numerous carbon inclusions and seems to continues underneath the mudbrick deposit. From the fill of the pit, which included a complete horse cranium and articulated sheep/goat lumbar vertebrae, sacrum and innominate, the pit 513 seems to be a garbage pit, cut the fill of a larger pit, cut through the floor that extends between walls 313 and 332 and is associated with these walls. | |
