DescriptionThis stratum was near flush with the surrounding stratum SU 8105, and was individuated in part for the lack of mortar inclusions on its surface. There was one brick fragment found on its margin. The soil matrix at the interior was consistent for the depth of this stratum. There were very sparse inclusions of ceramic fragments found randomly distributed in this stratum along with small white stones.
