Description:   Top slope of the context is slight down to the SW. Bottom slope of the context is slight down to the SWThe soil color is light pinkish brown. The soil compaction is loose. The soil is poorly sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   After Andreas completed B98 on 11/05/07 there was a small raised area of harder soil extending out from B98's west scarp. Upon examination we determined that this area of harder soil was on top of the context revealed by the removal of B98 [this new context was later excavated with B145] so we decided to excavate this little basket, B101, first.
