| Lot: | Lot 2015-082 | |
| Stratum: | 10% very small white inclusions, 30% subrounded pebbles. Very fine clasts in general. A few flecks of carbon | |
| Description: | The soil color is light reddish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
| Notes: | This context revealed two vessels in the southwest corner (C-2015-6 and C-2015-7) along with a piece of a gold wire (MF-2015-55). There were also a lot of bone frgts but nothing articulated at this point. The soil immediately around the vessels was saved for water sieving separately, while the soil from the rest of the cut dry sieved and then water sieved on site. We are still high enough up in the fill that there may be later material from the disturbance of the tomb in antiquity- several blgl sherds and an iron nail also come from this level. | |
