Actually, p is totally ramified in that extension -- it doesn't split
at all ... but the residue field is still Z/pZ. In the above example:

sage: K.factor(p)
(Fractional ideal (-a))^7
sage: P = K.factor(p)[0][0]
sage: P.ramification_index()
7
sage: K.residue_field(P)
Residue field of Fractional ideal (-a)
sage: K.residue_field(P).order()
7
