Notes:   The matrix of this basket is dark brown sandy silt, weakly cemented, with 5% pebble inclusions. B42 was determined to be sitting on top of the soft soil of the bottom layer of the S half of B41. After two passes the soft soil that formed the bottom of B41 was exposed in the entire area of B42, and therefore it was possible to unite these two areas in one single basket.
