Notes:   We are struggling to understand what is happening in this area. We dug erroneously B 5073 and B 5074. Those two, along with this basket (B 5075), were excavated by us in reverse stratographic sequence. We are digging B 5075 because it cuts B 5074 and the harder surface behind to the N. B 5074 in turn appears to cut the ashy soil we dug in B 5073.
A little more of the crosswall at its N end is revealed.
This soil comes down onto the orange soil we started excavating in B 5074.
