Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the S. The soil color is light brownish black. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is very poorly sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
Notes: | After removing the first layer of courtyard surface in the NE quadrant we uncovered another cut, circular in shape. It is roughly in line on an E-W axis with Cut 80 (Pit south of Unit 2 Room A). Its fill is slightly more black in color than the reddish brown uncovered around it. It is clear then that the fill is the latest material uncovered by Deposit 102. The fill is very shallow and the bottom of the cut was quickly found. | |
