Stratum:   30% tile fragments, small angular cobbles, pottery
Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark greenish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   6626 is a small deposit of tiley rocky fill cut by 6620
It is possible that 6626 is the fill inside a robbing trench. It's position relative to Wall 6422 suggests this. However the space here is small and the stones of 6422 go below the bottom of 6626, maling a robbing trench unlikely. Also complicating the interpretation of this context is the disturbance of cut 6623.
