2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-08-24 lC This layer is considered the interface between the ash f24 and the feature underneath. It is brown in color and quite compact in hardness. This layer has some pieces of broken mud bricks and sherds. In the northern portion, next to the north section of k12, we cut the layer for some centimeters. In some points it is very soft, other points are more compact, moreover there are still lenses of ash, all because is an interface .It is also contains small pieces of charcoal and few burnt small pieces of clay. This feature seems to start right where the mud bricks visible in the edge of f52 are stopping. The feature is also sloping down toward west, but it is quite irregular in its surface.

Daily notes about recovery of elements 2008-08-14 lR In k12, we continued to remove the ash f24 in the hope that a pavement surfaces to find the depth of f52 and f64 wall. By the end of the day, a brown slightly compact layer was found under the ash f24, labeled f118. This layer still contains lots of charcoal and ash embedded but maybe the interface between a floor surface and the ash f24. [Input: S816LR.j]
