| Description: | The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
| Notes: | This context, 1064, is a narrow deposit running E-W, just N of and cut by the robbing trench W of Wall 807, that is, 915. Excavation begins to reveal tile fragments bedded horizontally: not thickly packed, but sufficiently consistent to suggest they lay on a surface, perhaps -- perhaps! -- a destruction layer. However, eventual excavation of these tiles as Deposit 1074 does not support the destruction layer hypothesis. They did lay on the surface of 1076, however. | |
