Description
- CH06SR0768
- Very compact soil in W corner of SE part of room 38
- Layer of very compact soil that lay, initially, under a large paving stone. Once the paver was removed, the soil became much more loose, and a lighter shade of brown and produced lots of small - medium sized rocks, and very large broken pieces of pithoi. There were only small ceramics and bone otherwise.
- Although when first encountered this small section seemed like a very different, compacted layer - it may just be compacted as a result of the rains and our walking on it. It covers 785 and thus may be material from 753.
Interpretation
-
- This layer is yet another filling in cut 728 - likely from a garbage dump.
