Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light pinkish brown. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is poorly sorted. It is clayey silt.
Notes:   6771 was opened as a deposit with less tile and rocks than the contexts below it and covers a large portion of the center of the room. Guy has decided to continue going down in this room to get pottery for earlier occupation dates in this area. We closed this context when we came down on tiles, stone and bone.
