Notes:   While excavating context 313 in the W section of the corridor between Unit 2 and the N wall of the churhc, we came down on a tiley deposit sitting at the surface of Room 7 and the corridor. When we began excavating, the tile was revealed to be covering the top of a small, shallow pit thought to be a dog's resting spot. The deposit was stopped when it was clear that underneath and next to it was a harder and clayier layer (perhaps associated with the wall next to the deposit).
