Stratum:   quite a few large rocks
Description:   Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark greyish brown. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   We decided to excavate this as a context distinct from 313, even though they had the same soil, because 314 contained many more large rock inclusions than 313, which had very few inclusions of any sort.
314 contains only one piece of modern material, while 313 contained quite a few pieces. This difference may be because 313 was lower, occupying a depression into which modern material may have washed down from the higher parts of the large area represented by 313, 314, 315 (same soil in all of them).
