| This is an extremely shallow pit, most identifiable by where it digs into u. 20224, a deposit of mud-brick. The basal boundary is defined by a distinct soil change to a mottled orange compact clay loam. It is unclear what the purpose or function of this pit could have been, given its shallowness and low artifact density, unless it was simply a basin-like repository for the extensive spillover of the fill from f. 3953, unit 20225-- but the way it cuts into u.20224 so clearly leaves the question of why this shallow pit was dug in the first place. |
