Description
- CH06SR0770
- Fill of pit in NE courtyard
- Dimensions of pit are 84 cm (NW-SE) X 97 cm (NE-SW) [63 cm to the wall trench 762] and 55 cm in depth. Dark brown fill of soil with little clay. The pit was constructed by a well-formed circular cut into the bedrock. The sides are slightly steep with a rounded bottom.
- Only 3 or 4 pieces of tile and very little shell. We are unable to tell if one of the edges W/SW/S are bedrock or a slab/paving stone?
