Description:   Top slope of the context is level.
Notes:   6661 is a large cleaning basket. We need to find better boundaries in the southern half of the room. A thin layer was removed east of 6422 and the edge of the grey floor, west of context 6557, south of the NE baulk and N-S cut. The cleaning did not clarify any boundaries between contexts in the south-east section of the room; we therefore interpreted the whole area as one fill and excavated it as 6662.
