Descriptive Attribute Value(s)
Designator Fill
Context rating Tertiary
General remarks THis was originally a fill locus. However, the surface L4103 was found within it with 4102 and 4101 resting on this surface. L4103 was a thin, ephemeral surface which we dug past in certain points making L4098 a fill locus both above and below certain points of L4103.

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.
