Description:		Top slope of the context is moderate down to the N. The soil color is dark greyish grey. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is moderately sorted. It is silt.
Notes:		We opened 7019 , the ash deposit in bothros pit 5380, after we had taken down 7010 to the bottom of cut 5380, (so that 7010 and 7019 were at the same level). At this point it was clear that 7019 cut 7010. The ash was mixed with soil and progressively became more soily toward the bottom. About 10% charcoal was mixed with the ashy soil. We stopped upon reaching the bottom of the ash pit and seeing red soil. Due to all the charcaol we sent the entire context to the water sieve.
