Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 1997-06-24 rK Leveling the floor at the bottom of f330 = f324 led to material easily peeling off an ashy surface. This may be a floor--had plenty of sherds-- and we have labeled it f331. A clay lump that may have an impression on it was recovered from here. [Input: H627RK.J]
Notes on recovery 1997-06-24 dns mid-way through, came across surface from which accum above peeled off with ease. Attempted to trace surface with small pick. For a small area, less than 1/4 square meter, we traced a surface which did not continue. About 10cm below f330, top of two door sockets found, q item 763.1 and 763.2. Possibly a lense of ash. A couple of painted sherds and a claw found, also an incised rim sherd. [Input: H616DNSD.J]

Time Sequencing

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on time sequencing 1997-06-25 mkb f330 and f28 had painted sherds but nothing which certainly appears to be Nuzi. This stratum appears to be dated either very early in Nuzi (because of the handled pitcher sherd with handle directly attached to the rim, carinated bowl rims, necked jars with poorly painted black necks and bowls with a wide flat rim all characteristic of the Nuzi period at Mozan) or very late Habur period.
