Notes:   The matrix of this basket is medium brown sandy silt, compact, with 5% pebble anc cobble inclusions. B30 is a big pass over the area to the W of the two newly discovered blocks (B16) and to the N of the foundation trench of W215 (B29). The entire area consists of the same soil. The basket yielded a significant amount of pottery (half a zembil) as well as other material culture. To the N and around the limits of B26 a difference was noted where the soil had a reddish brown color and more pebble inclusions, and therefore it was decided to end this basket here.
