Stratum: | many rounded pebbles, ceramic sherds, bone, ca. 60% inclusions | |
Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the S. The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is well sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
Notes: | This well-sorted pebble floor was directly under the deposit of dumped fill. This floor appears to abut the stone structure in the NW and be filled into the gaps of the stones left by the structure. Under this pebble floor is another earth and pebble floor, which is only preserved in the northern part of the area below this context. Unfortunately, some of this lower floor was removed with the current context, but there will be enough to remove a sample. This is in the room NE of the courtyard. | |
