2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 1992-07-19 RK feature that appeared in the process of removing the N baulk of k168. Below the topsoil, 35 cm below the present surface, at the junction of k167,168,217,218, is a horizontal layer of stones that lies EW. There is a "headstone" slab at the W end which appears to consist of a single rock that is higher than the rest. The assemblage was obviously plastered and is flat except for the rise at the W end. This is quite adjacent to the layer of bricks, f36 in k218 and more or less at the same level. At this point I wonder if this was a fairly late structure used for some water related purpose. It could potentially be the well preserved top of a burial that is entirely within the baulk at this point. [Input: C7-3.J]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Strategy (projected or implemented) 1992-07-19 RK It is unlikely that we will excavate this further this season. [Input: C7-3.J]
Notes on recovery 1992-07-21 RK the "headstone" was moved from its place to the top of the remainder of the feature in order to prevent accidents since the baulk to the W of it has been cut down for excavation and the stone was not secure in place. [Input: C7-3.J]
