Stratum: | darkish yellowship brown firm sandy silt; inclusions of marble fragments | |
Description: | The soil color is dark yellowish brown. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is well sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
Notes: | We open this context to remove the fill underneath the pebble and cement surface. The soil is similar to the soil in context 329 in consistency and color (perhaps slightly more orange). We close when we come down on a layer that is slightly harder (more clay) and has an increasing amount of charcoal inclusions. | |
