The soil color is light reddish brown. The soil compaction is compact. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt. | | Notes: | | Fill 6184 was opened as a deposit of mostly tile laid up against wall 10086 to the east . This fill is one of several similar deposits that Fill 6180 covered. We are digging 6184 separately because it has more tile than the dirt directly to the west. It may be that 6184 overlies this dirt to the west with less tile. 6184 was closed when the tiles were removed. 6186 was opened below. | | Context Pottery: | | Coarseware. pithos, small1 rim. ; Fineware.
