Context: CH06SR_754
- This layer consisted of very ashy, gray soil filled with many stones, rock, ceramic and metal fragments. The earth was fairly well compacted, and easily distinguished from the layer beneath. This layer also contained many seashells and was much less deep than 712 (the layer directly covering it).
