Description:   The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is stongly cemented. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   This context is a fill of rubble in the north-east of Room E. To the east is wall 5341, and to the N wall 5340. It is truncated by cut 7260, a pit or well. Interestingly, the inclusions in this rubble, namely the larger stones and tiles, are similar to those of wall 7303. Perhaps, this is a rubble fill from some collapse or partial collapse of this wall.
