Notes:   This context is the second layer of the linear fill along the N side of wall 44. There was no clear soil change between this and context 242 above and it is possible that they are the same fill. The relationship to the fills to the north is unclear and it is possible that they are all part of a large leveling operation in the area. It is clear, however, that these fills post-date wall 44 and the tomb.
