Notes:		11.58: Small lens of soil NE corner of the room. Although the boundaries with the upper layers are well defined, distinguishing between 858 and the context is laid on was very difficult. The boundary is extremely diffuse, and defining the limits of the context depended on the visible fragments of tile (c.7cm) on the surface of the context. 12.20: Excavation of the lens ended.
