Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the SE. The soil color is light reddish brown. The soil compaction is firm. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   1081 only present in NE corner of unpaved courtyard in unit 1, though on the south edge of the unpaved courtyard against north edge of paving stones, there was layering of 1079-1080-1081. Packed gravel floor first exposed in west part of unit seems to extend under 1081 as well. Floor does not continue under paved courtyard in the south; therefore, 1081 must have been laid down after the paving stones. It is not clear whether 1081 used to exist as an entire floor surface and has since been eroded, or if it was simply a repair job in an area for the packed gravel floor surface below.
