Designator | Fill |
Context rating | Tertiary |
General remarks | This locus is bounded by walls 65, 70, and 84. This locus was changed from 69 to 91 because 69 was a larger fill locus and when we articulated the walls the locus size changed. |
Strat below | 69 |
Strat abuts | 65, 84, 58, 71 |
Top depth center | 587.58 |
Bottom depth center | 587.19 |

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. |
