Description
- CH06SR0906
- Compact clay fill in Western part of the cut 0900, Room 38
- Compact clay layer of fill in the central-western part of cut 900. This layer was distinct from both 908 and 879 which were adjacent to it. This layer also had a cut on its eastern side, cut 909. The soil was compact and contained debris typical of trash fills - pottery, bones, plaster, metal objects, but also three ceramic loom weights.
Interpretation
