| Earth Remarks | Color & texture refer only to the rock dust found among the stones; the limestone rock was angular in shape & appeared to be freshly quarried; very few rock chips & dust were found & absolutely no soil had filtered into the rock debris; most of the stones were between 10 & 20 cm in size & resembled the remains left over after one has broken limestone rocks with a sledge hammer; the rock fill was also exposed under Wall 22 from the W side; the top of the rock outside the defensive wall was 910.02 & the bottom 909 68 |
