Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on recovery 1992-07-16 RK was removed today [Input: C7-3.J]
1992-07-19 RK by close of workday, accumulation f23 had been removed to a level just above the feature f38. [Input: C7-3.J]
1992-07-20 RK excavation of the SE quadrant of k217 yielded another piece of the tannur. See v15. More "brick" was seen in association. This part of the tannur remained until now because we had left the E /2 of the locus as a step (on account of the presence of burials) when the rest of f38 was first discovered. The walls of the tannur were bagged. [Input: C7-3.J]
