2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster	Date	Author	Record
Description (summary)	2000-07-02	jl	This feature is the last layer of f259 above f317 in the E half of k27. At gb's instructions, I changed it because f259 is a very large and mixed layer, and this layer seemed dirtier than the earth above it. The previous q-lot, q384, in the W half of the locus remains as f259, since the sherds have already been sorted and processed, and to change that would be too much work. [Input: K704JL.j]
Notes on description	2000-07-03	jl	Due to the non-existence of f317, f316 has now been extended to include all of the accumulation in k27 from its starting height to the bottom of the feature, which has not yet been reached. [Input: K705JL.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster	Date	Author	Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements	2000-07-03	jl	There is a clear vertical fissure around k27 on all sides. Towards k26, the ^a is pressed up against a very smooth face, and flakes off quite easily, suggesting that the ^a in k27 is later than that in k26. On the sides facing the stone walls, there is a fissure of soft, loose dirt down which a trowel slides with ease. I am reminded of a pit in A7 from three seasons ago, which had separated by approximately 2cm from the dirt on all sides, making us think for a time that it was a column. Could k27 be a pit, later than k26 and the apsidal structure? The contents of the ^a, large quantities of broken sherds, bones, stones, and also ash, also support the theory that it might be a pit. On the other hand, the very smooth face of k26 is unusual for a pit, according to gb. We will know more as the excavation continues. [Input: K705JL.j]

Deposition

Roster	Date	Author	Record
Assumption	2000-07-04	gb	in spite of the nature and alignment of the components, I regard this feature as accumulation rather than fill, because there is an overall horizontal banding of matrix and even components. In other words, this is not a single fill, much less a massive discard, as we notice often in h4 and h5 hollows at the edge of the post-palace settlement. [Input: K705JL.j]
