Description:   Top slope of the context is uneven. Bottom slope of the context is uneven down to the The soil color is very dark pinkish brown. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is moderately sorted. It is sandy silt.
Notes:   Basket 201 is below B198. The soil of B201 was lighter and harder than that of B198, so we decided to examine it separately. In the bottom of the basket we discovered the stones of the wall that continues further to the north and had been excavated earlier.In the west and the east of the wall the soil is softer probably because of the foundation of the wall. The wall part below B201 has darker soil between the stones than the wall part immediately to the north of the basket, which is also higher than that below B201.
