  • This stratum is dispersed horizontally, and is of a silty, smooth composition. Visible in low concentration on the surface is one large white stone inclusion, as well as two grain mill stones lying on the surface. This stratum has a plane surface. The soil was an easily troweled sandy clay with dense inclusions of charcoal and sparse inclusions of animal bones and ceramic fragments randomly distributed. The interface with the stratum below was clear for reasons of color.
