Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light pinkish brown. The soil compaction is compact. The soil is poorly sorted. It is clayey silt.
Notes:   Pit fill deposit 524 is another differentiated lens of fill in a pit cut in the room bounded by wall 313 to the east and wall 332 and structure 452 to the west. The pit fill deposit 524 is one of three deposits (524, 521, 522) that were obscuring the interface between twp putative pits. With the removal of 524, the cut of a later pit through the fill of an earlier pit is now clear. It is now possible to say that the south pit filled by 518 and 523 cuts the earlier pit filled by 519 and 520.
