Interpretation

C636 is below C605 which is quite similar to C605 but include less of limestone, and the color of soil become darker. There is also few of finds in this layer. Excavate from south to north, try to find the northern limit and botto of C601. At the southern area , it was C641 which is part of collapse of the C601 (wall). After excavated about 15-20cm deep, at the southwest corner come up a round area with brown soil which seems like a pit set context 639 (with cut C640), and at the north limit come up an east-west area, with some pottery, seem like another pit, set C643 (with cut C645). The other atea the soil become light and with some white inclusion, it could be part of natural soil, which set C642 to deep excavation.
