| Description: | The soil color is dark reddish black. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is clayey silt. | |
| Notes: | -74 is of similar consistency as 63, with slightly greater amount of stones and tiles; 74 is slightly siltier than 63. -Mixed: reddish black earth on top, siltier greyish black underneath -Excavation of soil within possible bin to clarify the use of this structure in the NW corner of Room 5. -Soil is similar consistency and color as context 63, but is separated from the rest of 63 by the door jamb; may be contemporary fill. -Underneath initial harder reddish earth, earth below is softer and siltier. This may be fill of he structure. -Structure seems to be a bin in the corner of the room, as it is enclosed by stones on its E. side and by a reused door jamb (which seems to have been recut from a column) laid on a bed of stones and tiles. -Context seems to extend down to a lower elevation than floor level exposed in context 63 and therefore may be an earlier construction; in addition, stone bedding for door jamb visible from inside of bin, but not from exterior. -At bottom of context were revealed large, irregularly-shaped stones, approximately 20-25 cm in length. Finds: bone, pietra ollare NA-158: Pietra Ollare, joins with context 27 (Photo: digital_2017_0250) | |
