Stratum:		5-10% inclusions - small boulders, large cobbles and sub-angular pebbles
Description:		Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light greenish grey. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is silt.
Notes:		6386 was opened after 6383, the preceeding context, was excavated for about 1.0 m. This was a technical/methodological change as part of 0.30 passes due to the well depth. However, more cobbles and small boulders came out as we began the context. Soil remains soft and ashy. 6386 came down on a harder deposit with more clay. 6386 was closed and 6394 was opened because of the change to the more clayey context and NOT as part of the 0.30 passes.
