| Stratum: | 80% tile, rounded-subrounded angular pebbles, ceramics, bone, plaster, shell | |
| Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the E. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
| Notes: | 380 is a patch of dumped fill in a soft light yellowish brown matrix with pebbles ceramics, and bone in the soil. The lense abuts wall 311 to the W and partly wraps around its preserved southern edge. The S central portion of fill next to wall 311 has a lump of reddish harder soil protruding above the soft yellowish brown. This red has fewer inclusions and may be related to the red W of an beneath 337 and 339. A bit of plaster is present, visible at the opening of the Deposit, near the NE face of 311. There is no orientation to the tile or debris, leading us to conclude it is dumped fill. | |
