| Stratum: | 15% inclusions: pebbles, pottery, bone; soil is ashy in places, and redder in other places | |
| Description: | The soil color is light reddish brown. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand. | |
| Notes: | Fill 6398 was revealed by the excavation of 6397. After 6397 was excavated, this next surface was revealed beneath it. This surface is higher and seems to be later than the surrounding features which is why we are excavating it at this time, before the other surfaces/features. After the excavation of 6397 Panos noticed some traces of ash that he wanted to try to trace out. As Panos excavated this context, he noticed another floor surface underneath (6408). It also revealed that there may have been some remaining fill from the bothros towards the edge of the bothros; Panos will remove these contexts next (6403, 6404). On the northern side, Panos also revealed two round ashy areas which will be excavated after the bothros fill areas (6406, 6407). | |
