Description
- CH06SR0759
- Yellow-Orangish brown layer across N courtyard, Area 2 and into Area 3
- Brown loam layer with yellow and orange clay inclusions that extends all the way across the unit except for [the area of] the wall trench (possible) in the NW side (adjacent to wall 265). In addition to the abovementioned clay inclusions there were eroded limestone fragments (white and likely bedrock), several fragments and lumps of plaster (3 bags), and an approximately 6cm [in diameter] lump of greenish clay. Also contains many flecks of charcoal especially between section 1 and 2. Depth varies from 10-15 cm and composition is similar to context 0772.
- Also eroded limestone fragments (white). Note: 8-10 millstone fragments from this context and SR758 were all concentrated in the same 75 X 75 cm area (see sketch). Two nails recovered. This layer also extends from section 1 to section 2 over the majority of the surface and about 1/3 of the way into Area 3.
