Description: | Top slope of the context is level. The soil color is dark reddish brown. The soil compaction is weakly cemented. The soil is poorly sorted. It is clayey sand. | |
Notes: | 6813 was opened directly south of context 6788, spilling over into the next room last excavated in 2009. We are bringing this context down to establish better its relationship with the the northern context 6788. Apparently what we thought was red stereo was not, after speaking with Guy. We found a small wedge-shaped section of 6788 which we failed to catch on the NE corner of 6813. We are pausing to excavate this before continuing. We continued 6813 but halted to excavated another context (6822) on the northern end of this context. | |
