• Old Context CodeCH04SR0411
• DefinitionLayer of collapse in courtyard 1
• DescriptionLayer consists of large to medium stones in a brown soil. The context is just NW of the NW wall in room 31a. The floor of the courtyard is evident in the profile left by previous excavations. Consistency a bit more compact than SR 411 elsewhere, but the color was the same.
• ObservationsConcentration of ceramics, representing more than one vessel, and shell in the NE corner of the unit. Large concentration of tile along the north/ NW edge of the unit. The context seems to be separated by a wall. In other words, it doesn't seem to be connected to the courtyard, but instead separate (this area eventually assigned room 37). Organic sample of sea grass taken from the western area of the context (just north of wall SR437). Review of record before publication identifies impossible stratigraphic relationship, where layer is cut by 430 but covers the fill of 430; unreliable stratigraphic position, but since the fill seems later, we are removing the 411 covers 431 relation.
