The pit continues to go down below the stone pavement and is currently 1 meter below the level of the pavement. The fill alternates from a brown ash, dark black ash, and white ash mixed with brown soil. The fill contains lots of large pottery sherds, rims, bases, burnt bones, and other objects. In the south there are two baked bricks seen in the pit wall but are most likely not linked to the other baked bricks since they are rather high in elevation and look jumbled. Below these approx 42 cm down are a line of baked bricks probably those of a24. A few look vertical. The material below the baked bricks f326 is a bright orange clay f334. This pit continues to go down and we left a section to the north but have stopped digging for the moment since we are currently one meter below the stone pavement. [Input: -MX12-99.j] |
