Stratum:   10% fine and medium pebbles, all angular tabular. Some pottery
Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the N. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   Context 7046 is located in the N of the 'pithos' room of Room F E-half. Its borders are formed by the cut to the N, the pithos on the W, and wall 20 and the bothros to the E. This context was removed with the purpose of trying to level the floor in the ‘pithos’ room to one surface. The context was probably an accumulated fill because of its shallow depth. Excavation was stopped when the excavators came down on a darker context, which was still above the floor level. Several pieces of wall plaster were found in this fill, which suggests that this was redeposited mudbrick.
