Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the N. The soil color is light reddish yellow. The soil compaction is weakly cemented. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
Notes: | We are taking out thuis sandy patch in the SW Corner. It is mostly sterile sand with some bits of tile. This context is very small, possibly, according to Panos, a patch left over from previous work. It did, however, underlie 796, though this covering was very shallow. 22 May, 2015 As today is the last day of field work, we stopped excavating with this layer yesterday. Today we are taking final measurements and plans. 1\06\2015 (Larkin Kennedy, Rossana Valente) Larga animal bones (bovid?), seeshells: 0.33 kg, all thrown. | |
