| General remarks | The southern part of the locus was quite soft. This might be because the north baulk of the original trench slumped in and was replaced with eroded material. The same fill as 6024, 6026, 6031, 6033 |
| Strat abuts | 6031, 6032, 6033 |
| Strat is cut by | 6024, 6025 |
| Strat remarks | Arbitrary locus |
| Top depth south-west | 569.33 |
| Top depth south-east | 569.25 |
| Bottom depth west | 569.16 |
| Bottom depth center | 569.16 |
| Bottom depth east | 569.17 |
| Dimension length | 2.5 |
| Dimension width | 0.8 |

| 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. |
