| Description: | The context shape in plan is irregular. The top break of the cut is varies. The sides of the cut are mixed. The break at the base of the cut is varies. The base of the cut is flat. | |
| Notes: | 6859 is the cut for the grave 6851. The area cut is larger than the rectangular tile lined grave and somewhat irregular. On the south, the slope at top and base is gradual but owing to wall 6526 the slope is sharp on the north of the context. For the same reasons the sides are convex on the south and vertical on the north. Some large boulders (c. 0.30m) were used as fill. Fill (dirt and rubble) were put in to level the base,then tiles were placed in, and dirt was placed behind the tiles as packing. Context was closed when we hit the bottom of the cut and a different soil color. | |
