Stratum:   inclusion: 2% small pebbles - subrounded
Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the N. The soil color is light greyish yellow. The soil compaction is very soft. The soil is well sorted. It is sandy clay.
Notes:   This context is a small patch of sandy clay in the northern part of the W room. This deposit seemed to cover a large fill extending across the room, so we decided to remove it first. After excavating only a few centimeters of the sandy clay, we revealed a thick line of flat-lying tiles in the E area and stones, which seem to be the top of a wall oriented E-W. After removing the clay we closed the context and opened the area N of the possible wall as context 6102.
