Summary Between Northern wall (5702_f1) and “Southern Wall” (5702_f2).

Dry sieve.
Date Excavated 2009-06-03
Min Elevation 55.25
Max Elevation 55.39
Description There was a significant amount of tumble, pottery, and mudbrick in this SU. The soil was similar to the fill on the Northern side of the North wall. The dirt towards the south was getting harder. We found bigger pieces of pottery, some bone (bone was also found in SU 5712), and flooring. We decided to close the SU because we hit a floor surface and then went down another 3-5 cm.

Top Elevation N =55.37, C =55.39, S = 55.37
