Date:   2015/04/23
Stratum:   Medium angular pebbles, terracotta pieces, common white (lime) inclusions. 40%
Description:   The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is compact. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   Reddish brown deposit with many white inclusions distributed unevely in the northern part of Room 2, although it does not slope in any particular direction. It appears to have covered an earthen surface visible in different areas of Room 2 and after excavating Context 612, this redder earthern surface seems to have covered the extent of the room. Unlike previous contexts, 612 did not have any metal finds.
