Stratum:   ceramic sherds, rooftiles, course angular pebbles, some charcoal, ca. 20% inclusions
Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the SE. The soil color is light brownish black. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is silt.
Notes:   This is a small deposit of ashy soil evident over the darker, harder red soil to the SE of stone structure 7092. It is likely a dumped fill, one of many that are present in this area between floor layers, which implies three phases of use in this area thus far. This deposit, like many in this area, is made of slightly mixed soil, and includes some harder, reddish soil mixed with the ashy soil. This is in the room NE of the courtyard.
