Description

  • CH06SR0879
  • Compact brown fill layer in NW part of room 38
  • Thick layer of compact brown soil in the better part of cut 900 (save for a small section on its extreme W side). This layer was compact and produced many small finds, several nails, some larger-sized pottery, small pieces of plaster and many seashells.

Interpretation

    • This was a major fill layer - perhaps early, based on the type of pottery we removed - of the larger cut. This layer was the first to give us the indidcation that the cut might be divided into two levels (one with higher bedrock cut, the other with a lower cut).
