Notes:   We leave a martyr between this fill and the RT to the west. The "burned ceramic" that is present in this fill is the same material as the possibly in situ floor of context 223, which is on the south side of the well. It is therefore likely that this material covered a larger portion of the bedrock in antiquity. A sample of the 'flooring' was kept. This fill revealed a wide shallow pit on its south side.
