The soil color is dark brownish red. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt. | | Notes: | | The reddish fill was removed to further understand the extent of the so-called pit fill associated with context 207. This reddish fill appears to be similar to context 201 which also had a grey reddish soil color. Excavation showed that the underlying soil was the same as 207, the so-called pit fill. It is the same ashy chunky grey soil. This means the fill is quite massive may not be from a pit. (Or a just from a very large pit. The context also revealed what might be a cut. It's difficult to determine if this is a true cut from another pit or simply a depositional boundary. | | Context Pottery: | | Cooking ware. triangular rim stew pot (1100-1270)1 rim.
