Description:   The context shape in plan is irregular. The top break of the cut is not perceptible. The sides of the cut are sloping. The break at the base of the cut is not perceptible. The base of the cut is uneven.
Notes:   Cut 5890 has two depressions that may be for setting something into the floor or the southern one, with the softer soil apparently continuing under the surface to the west, may be a mousehole. The two depressions are about 0.40m apart and the first (southern) is .32m long and ends in a 0.05 diam round soft depression at the west, the 2nd (northern) is 0.05m wide by 0.22m long. The shallow pit 5890 is in the SE corner of walls 5216 and 5284. The cut has sloping sides and an uneven base, most notable in the two southern depressions.
