Descriptive Attribute Value(s)
Designator Fill
General remarks This is the fill beneath the surface(L2146, L2140, ect.) in the South western part of the trench. Was created in the search for a white plaster line visible on the surface. The question is therefore is this fill on top of another surface belonging to the plasterline or is it on top of a wall feature?

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.
