| Stratum: | 10% small to medium irregular but rounded pebbles, rare flecks of carbon, 5% small conpacted clay chunks mostly red | |
| Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light reddish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy clay. | |
| Notes: | Soil is similar to 88, but with fewer inclusions. This context was begun arbitrarily after 88 and is similar in its lack of inclusions. It is also redder than previous contexts because it has more of the reddish clay in it than before. The proportion of red = yellow compacted clay has changed slightly in the past 50cm to more red. But it is essentially the same. The lower slab of an andisite hopper mill was found at 7,03/el. 74,46. The soil is consistent throughout. We are changing contexts arbitrarily to 92. A coin was found at the bottom of 91/top of 92 at el. 74,36. I still believe that it is one large rubble fill. There are some pockets of very sandy soil. | |
