Description
- CH06SR0910
- Compact brown surface with lime and charcoal inclusions, NW part of room 38
- Layer of compact brown soil, just above the bedrock, in the eastern side of cut 900. The layer was the bottom most of the fill in this cut and had much of the same debris in it as its upper layers - ceramic, bone, seashells, plaster and some small pieces of glass.

Interpretation
-
- This appears to be the first of the fill layers of this cut in the bedrock. I think that this is fill, rather than a usage surface, because the inclusions in the soil removed were nearly identical to the layers of fill above it. It is unusual, however, that the layer just above the bedrock is brown and not clay-like.
