Description:		Top slope of the context is uneven. The soil color is dark yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:		This is another fill level between pier 920 and wall 929. It contained several marble tiles and some stone blocks. It is over where we know there is a grave because of structure 1016 running into the soil it is over on the east of this context. The removal of the marble tiles has revealed the western half of the cut mark likely for this burial. The soil contained by the cut mark is more red than that outside the cut mark. The cut mark still has a thin layer of another fill on top of it, which continues in a greater amount to the north.
