• Old Context CodeCH06SR0890
• DefinitionCompact brown soil in cut 0901, room 38
• DescriptionLayer of relatively compact soil (includes two large stones) in the northern part of cut 901 extending under wall 264. The soil was more compact under the large stones but the material was of consistent color, texture and inclusions. At its extent, this layer included no more than 20 square centimeters of soil. The soil lacked a great deal of debris, though the majority of the material was "special."
• ObservationsA bit of incertainty about the relative compactness of the soil in some places, but not all, in this layer. I have attributed this to the stones and our stepping on the area while getting in and out of cut 728 but, this could be misguided. So, I treated both slightly compact and more compact soil at the same level as the same material, and same context.
