Descriptive Attribute	Value(s)
Designator	Fill
General remarks	Area of fill immedietely abutting L5045 on the outside (though actually turned out to be on the inside of the house in the areas W of the wall) and in northern areas coming down to what is equivalent to the surface on the outside of the wall. Went through sealing ash layer and had a couple areas of harder soil, probably melted or collapsed mudbrick from the wall. "Surface" level had three fishnet weights stacked on it--KT 5468 5469 and 5470.

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.
