Stratum: | 5% medium rounded tabular and irregular stones. 2% compacted yellow clay chunks and few flecks of carbon. | |
Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy clay. | |
Notes: | Softer than 78, same as 73. This context was begun arbitrarily, i.e. without a distinct soil change after 73. The soil was consistent throughout, although some zembels had more bone and shell than others. This context was stopped once a very large block was found at 75.46 and context 78 was begun. The block is the same material and shape as the well club still in situ at the top. The top of the block is at 75.56. The block itself is wedged and sideways. Tiles (pan and cover): 6 = 8.9kg | |
