Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on recovery 1997-07-17 dns All of the loose accumulation in the cavity was cleared out and a sample collected. The base where it meets the cut section is quite flat. It does not show any openining that extends anywhere to the back or side. The stones of the wall, f200, from the back of the cavity. Just gently clearing out the inside nmaterial revealed a cavity, ca. 110cm diameter and height 60cm. There is more loose material adhering to the roof that can be removed. Bricks are visile on the left edge of the section along the vertical, adjoining the stone wall of f210. There seem also to be bricks at the base, at least two courses where the section has cut it.

1997-07-17 dns cavity, in the ac in N baulk, about 70 cm from the floor of k22 [Input: ZH322lC.j]
1997-07-26 dns We had recovered what may be the skeleton of a snake from the chamber of f455. No openings to it had been seen from directly above or to the N and W. The S and E have walls of the room. Eventual removal of the feature showed a path, small enough for a small snake and curvy, that led from the brick wall of f210, close to the corner with f200, along the E face of the S wall, f200, down into f455.
