Recovery/Assignment

Roster	Date	Author	Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements	2001-07-04	fAB	k6 contains a2, which we have not touched this season, since it was dug by A13 in MZ12, and is the oldest structure in A16. [Input: L704FAB.j]
Notes on recovery	2001-06-17	fAB	When cleaning this square, gB and the newer members of the staff discovered a floor (f29) that was associated with the rest of a2. [Input: L617FAB.j]
Notes on recovery	2001-06-26	fAB	I explored today the area above and between a1 and a2. It is odd that the alignment is so similar, but it is clear from what I saw that they are two distinct structures, even in two distinct strata. [Input: L630TR.j]

Notes on time sequencing	2001-06-17	fAB	This aggregate is covered by brickfall f25 (which is actually in k5, but clearly is present in k6) which instead abuts a1 in k5. This means that a2 is earlier in date than a1, and a3 to the E seems to also be abutted (or even the point of origin) by a brickfall f21 which seems the same as f25. [Input: L617FAB.j]
	2001-07-04	fAB	We are presented now with the problem of linking the several aggregates together into a meaningful stratigraphic sequence. As we understand it now, a2 is the oldest structure that we have, as it sits on the pit in the N section of A13. a2 is clearly below a1, separated by a gray layer. a1 is contemporary with a5 and a3, since all abut but are not covered by brickfall. Questions arise when we look at the differences in elevation: a5 is considerably higher than a1 and a3. This seems to indicate a terracing, which we would expect to result from extended building in the phase of a2. [Input: L704FAB.j]
	2001-07-23	sV	a2 belongs to phase 5b and seems to be the only well preserved structure of this phase. The other structures to the West of a2 show a more complicated situation. [Input: L818LR.j]
