Unknown Date Marzuolo Archaeologist

Possible leveling layer created to abut wall. Dry brown soil with ceramics, burnt pottery and bone. Still possibly in a disturbed area. Larger stone inclusions start to appear in bottom, specifically along wall 18013. There are two red concentrations, one in the west corner and in the east corner. The west corner is more concentrated, but higher. Possibly a kiln related dump, but also still a high possibility of disturbance.
