Stratum:   Inclusions of ceramic, bone, and roof tile (?)
Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is compact. The soil is moderately sorted. It is clayey sand.
Notes:   We open this context to remove the harder fill with white inclusions to the west of the well that seems to overlie a possible packed surface/floor uncovered in the northeast area of Context 387. The soil is now a yellow-orange, clayey sand. There are bone inclusions as well as some possible roof-tile fragments. We close when we reach the remainder of the surface and decide to continue to take the rest of this fill in a new context to attempt to find the surface exposed at the end of context 380.
