Description: | Top slope of the context is slight down to the W. Bottom slope of the context is slight. The soil color is light brownish white. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is well sorted. It is sandy silt. | |
Notes: | B 221 is the excavation of soft soil in the area where the E-W cross wall of the apse building would have been. It may be a robbing or foundation trench. It seems that it was robbed out at some point. It appears that this robbing trench runs under the soil above to the west. We will clean this up and determine if we want to continue in this direction or leave it for next excavation season. Finds: bone, pottery, one coin | |
