Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   By the time we reached the top of this context the sides of cut 307 were clearly visible, confirming our suspicion that we had a bothros. The soil did not change, but we created a new context to distinguish a new lens of the same single-event fill.
