Descriptive Attribute Value(s)
Tentative Date Early Bronze Age I
Designator Fill
General remarks 4cm tall soft crust that pops off to reveal a harder surface, that still is not extremely hard. The fill underneath the crust is also part of this locus. Eventually became part of the large pavement L1033.

Has note Contexts excavated in trenches were recorded using the "locus system." A locus is any discrete three-dimensional entity excavated in a trench. The key to the locus system is the recognition that a locus is any one thing. Differences in soil composition or texture are therefore as important as, for example, the difference between a pit and a wall. If two entities were distinct, they were considered separate loci and were therefore assigned separate locus numbers. It should also be noted that every context excavated in a trench was given a locus number and thus the trench itself is made up completely of excavated loci.
