Description:   The soil color is dark brownish red. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is well sorted. It is clayey sand.
Notes:   Context 651 was a small deposit located under the rubble, removed as context 641 in session 1. The fill was well sorted and consisted of small pebbles, tile, and pottery and a clay matrix. It is possible that the material was washed in or slumped in during the 19 years of exposure of the rubble (641), that it slumped in after the deposit of the rubble in the past or that the material was part of the rubble initially, which itself could be from the wall.
