| Lot: | Lot 2015-087 | |
| Stratum: | 5-10% tile and irregular medium to large pebble sized limestone pieces, little carbon, 5% pottery, some small bits of slag. | |
| Description: | Top slope of the context is even. The soil color is light brownish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy clay. | |
| Notes: | This context was begun arbitrarily after 58. It has similar soil to 58 including a few pieces of yellow clay like in the previous contexts above, but there are more rocks and tiles and more pottery than in the ones above. We may have a real change in soil or are at least starting to get one. The presence of slag is new and supports that hypothesis. We are changing contexts arbitrarily after ca. 26 cm. 59 joins with 61 and also with 58 | |
