Description/Count
Description 2009-8-13lC Accumulation found below f340. This accumulation presents a compact surface reddish-orange in color with many small pebbles and white chunks, and with some fragments of broken mud bricks. At first it was proposed that it could be a sort of Late Chalcolithic escarpment but it is too flat and irregular to this function. It is probably a sort of accumulation linked to a8. Removing it we found some thin ashy lenses. Next to the walls f259 and f288 it shows, as f340, traces of brown pure clay, probably coming from water seepages along the faces of the stones. [Input file: T815LC.J / T815LC.-J]
2009-8-19lC Hard surface composed by bricky material, full of white chunks. This layer is abutting a8 and is going almost flat to the south, where it was cut from the ED III people in order to built the ^es c2, or from the erosion. It has a sharp edge. It is probably one of the last accumulations linked to the use of structure a8, before the construction of ^es c1, that is right above it. [Input file: T815LC.J / T815LC.-J]

Recovery/Assignment and the Record
Daily 2009-8-11lC Below the core material of the escarpment f196 we found this harder surface that has a thin layer of ash on it, probably meaning that it was exposed for some time. It is harder and more clayish in texture than f196, but removing it, at least in its eastern part, it seems very similar to f196. Excavating it some medium sized stones were uncovered. They could belong to the stones of f336 that are almost at the same level. They could be a sort of foundation for the escarpment or could belong to LC structures linked to wall f259 and f288.

Typological reasons 2009-9-27mKB LC3 coarse shapes: q1303- p6 casserole carination, q1298- p8 flat lid of cooking vessel (it is possible that this lid dates to Ninevite V), q1297- p5 small jar with s-shaped rim with small amount of burning on one part of rim, (this shape can also be imported but this example is locally made as seen in its coarse exterior texture and large amount of chaff, rest of LC3 sherds are from bowls and jars. Ninevite V shapes: q1303- p8 pointed base, q1309- p4 small pot with horseshoe shaped handle. ED III shapes: q1297- p7 short necked jar with large vertically pierced handle on the jar body, q1298 - p1, - p2 jars with a folded rim, interior groove on rim and globular body, q1298- p7 fine Simple ware cup darker green toward the bottom and yellow-buff near the rim, q1297- p3 small jar with beaded rim, q1297- p6 flat base with extension toward the exterior, q1298- p6 deep bowl with squared rim [Input file: T927MKB1.J / T927MKB1.-J]
