Description:		Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark yellowish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:		Scraping along the floor revealed by the excavation of the 594, though north of that context, revealed the south edge of the robbing trench for the north wall associated with that floor. The floor likely extends from the robbing trench southward to wall 576. The robbing trench is for an east west wall but it is unclear at the beginning of excavation of the fill whether it is in alignment with the east west wall 366 and its robbing trench. The first pass was weakly cemented from being walked upon, but as we continue to excavate the fill of the robbing trench, the soil becomes loose. It appears that the fill of the robbing trench is truncated to the east by the robbing trench from the removal of the corner formed by walls 306 and 366, such that the robbing out of the north wall of the room west of wall 306 is predates the robbing of portions of walls 306 and 366.
