| Description: | The soil color is light brownish red. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
| Notes: | This context is the removal of the hard-packed layer interpreted as a floor (936). Its excavation revealed it was a very thin layer, made of hard packed soil, with few small pieces of carbon. Because of the presence of carbon we decided to take a simple of soil. We did not find any traces of lime. Few pottery sherds were found in it and it was poorly soorted. The floor surface came on a hard-packed light brown layer under its S extent and on a distinguished hard-packed brownish fill, with small pottery sherds on its surface under its N side. | |
