Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light brownish brown. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silty sand.
Notes:   This context was opened to excavate the fill of the possible FT of the northern section of wall 38 at the junction of wall 44. It is wedged between bedrock to the east and roughly hewn rock to the west. It cuts through the circular feature and seems to be associated with the large square block at the center of the room. The soil continues into a small cut in the bedrock at the west side. It turns out that the bedrock was the compacted soil of 124. This context was not excavated furthur to the W and N, but continued down in the same area as originally begun.
It contains 75L of soil and little material culture.
