Description:   The soil color is light yellowish brown. The soil compaction is soft. The soil is moderately sorted. It is silty sand.
Notes:   This context is a black soil overlaid by 897. We distinguished it from the previous context, because it seemed to be a filling of a pit, cut in a reddish soil. We found large quantities of tiles and stones.
Correction: this fill was still part of the black leveling fill, 897.
