Context: | 132 | |
Date: | 2016/06/15 | |
Stratum: | 5% tile; 15% stone: 5% cobbles, 5% coarse pebbles, 5% medium pebbles | |
Description: | The soil color is dark brownish black. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is well sorted. It is clayey silt. | |
Notes: | -132 has some more larger stones than 130 but is otherwise the same in consistency and composition. -Excavation of looser silty fill in NE corner of trench surrounding pit (context 121/123). This seems to be largely same consistency as pit and previous context 130, but with fewer inclusions. Color of soil similar. -Context 132 seems to merge with pit 121/123 previously excavated; outline of pit lost as more soil excavated away. -At bottom of context, possible floor surface (or at least more compact, reddish soil) preserved in NE and NW edges of corner, but no surface (just loose soil) found at bottom of rest of context; the bottom of the context (similar to the bottom of the pit 121/123) is lower than the floor level exposed in NE and NW. There doesn't seem to be anything between the two preserved sections of floor surface at the botttom of this context. Finds: iron piece | |
