Place: Ar/Ge.T45.06

Top elevation referring to the NE corner. Bottom elevation referring to SW corner. For additional elevations see field notebook pp. 6, 8.

Layer covered by locus 4 and locus 5. It measures 4m x 3m and covers the entire surface of the trench, except for the large boulder located in the NE corner.
Locus 6 has the same matrix as loci 2, 4, and 5 (medium-light brown silty soil), but was distinguished from the latter in terms of depth. This is because loci 5 and 4 were employed to distinguish between the area N of locus 3 and the area S of locus 3 in case this would turn out to be an architectural feature in situ. Archaeological materials are less frequent in comparison with loci 2, 4, and 5 and only consist of faunal remains. Given the thickness of the deposit, we decided to open a sounding of 4 x 1 m along the E side of the trench to check the total thickness of the deposits and detect the depth of bedrock.
