| Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is hard. The soil is poorly sorted. It is silt. | |
| Notes: | We left this martyr in excavating floor 5606 to prevent contaminating a possible foundation trench along walls 5519 and 5483. Upon removing this martyr, there does not appear to be any sort of trench, only the rest of the floor under 5606. As this floor continues under wall 5485, we will not remove it at this time. What we initially thought to be a trench turns out to just be a border of softer earth where those who made the floor were unable to stomp it down and their activities on the floor did not pack it harder. | |
