| Stratum: | 5% inclusions; small amount of charcoal, boulders (c. 20cm), ceramics, tile, bones, marble boulder, horn fragment | |
| Description: | The soil color is light greenish grey. The soil compaction is stongly cemented. The soil is poorly sorted. It is clay. | |
| Notes: | New context, started arbitrarily after about 40 buckets of dirt. Dirt looks about the same- greyish clumps with greenish tinge. Clumps are a bit smaller than in the previous level, but still cannot be broken by hand. Few inclusions, but some charcoal, tile, ceramics. Some pieces of clay later on have a more reddish tinge. Excavation halted at 11:45 due to a thunderstorm; resumed on the morning of the 19th. Thanassis reports coming down on a layer that is softer and more white. 24/06/2015 Larkin Kennedy, Rossana Valente Animal bones all saved in pottery lot 2015-44 (1.9 kg) | |
