Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the W. The soil color is dark brownish red. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand.
Notes:   Loose fill with angular cobbles, pebbles, terracottas mixed together that touches the one remaining original stone of wall 556. As such, Context 602 must have been deposited after the construction of wall 556. The context was ended when a firmer, yellowish brown fill was encountered.
