Linked Contexts

  • Context: CH06SR_763
    • Distinct cut parallel to wall 265 [and wall 50] that cut through the pit (Context 770) down to the bedrock. Bottom was gently sloping with fairly straight walls in the profile of section 1. The cut was approximately 65 cm (NE-SW) towards the bottom and 3.6 M along walls 50 and 65.
  • Context: CH06SR_772
    • A very compact yellowish brown soil that occurs on both sides of the slab (773). To the east of the slab the dimensions are 57 cm (NE-SW) X 44cm (NW-SE). To the west of the slab the dimensions are 55 cm (NE-SW) X 81 cm (NW-SE). After removing 0774 it was determined that 0772 extended across the entire area between 0773 and wall296/297. The yellow is due to clay inclusions. The dimensions to the east of the slab [0773] also increased; see context extent and sketch plan.
  • Context: CH06SR_817
    • The cut is 84 cm (NW-SE) X 60 cm (NE-SW) then narrowing to 30 cm (NE-SW) as it approaches section 2. The sides vary, 2 are steep and the other gently sloping. The Northeastern most edge abuts pit 0823. The cut is approximately 30 cm in depth and the bottom and edges look like eroded bedrock.
  • Context: CH06SR_822
    • The cut is approximately 70 cm (NW-SE) X (NE-SW) and approximately 35-40 cm in depth with steep edges and a relatively flat bottom. The cut appears to extend under wall 296. One edge is a sharp/steep cut of bedrock, the other two edges are into soil (both into what may be a trench dug to rob stone slabs).
  • Context: CH06SR_830
    • At definition this context extended 1.5 M from section 1 towards section 2 in the wall trench. It also extended approximately 60 cm from section 2 towards section 1. In between these two areas we did not find the context, though it may have been removed while excavating context 0762. The soil is a yellowish brown loam with clay [more loose on top than bottom]. This context did extend into Area 3, continuing under the wall trench for walls 265 and 50.
  • Context: CH06SR_837
    • A dark brown clayey soil with medium sized (10-20 cm in diameter) stones. The dimensions are approximately 80 cm (NW-SE) and 3.6 M (E-SW), running from wall 296 to the wall trench 0762. The context/cut is perpendicular to walls 296 and 50. Artifacts including tile, ceramics and bone were prevelant throughout context, but especially concentrated near wall 0296.
