Corinth Basket: Nezi Field, context 5050 | Collection: | | Corinth | | Type: | | Basket | | Name: | | Nezi Field, context 5050 | | Area: | | Nezi Field | | Title: | | general fill | | Category: | | Deposit | | Notebook: | | 1100 | | Context: | | 5050 | | Page: | | 0 | | Date: | | 2007/05/10 | | Stratum: | | A very soft soil with 5% inclusions. | | Description: | | Top slope of the context is slight down to the N. Bottom slope of the context is slight down to the NThe soil color is very dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is very soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt. | | Notes: | | We had suspected a foundation trench for the potatostone wall. But after only a few centimeters, the soil changes - it is the same as the soil this deposit is cut into. Since the context ends above the bottom of the wall, this cannot be a foundation trench. Our next priority is to record the N wall of Room F, W, preliminary so we can excavated out the E section of the wall as it does not bond with the rest of the wall and is founded at a higher level.
