Description/Count
description (summary) 2006-10-09 jW This feature consisted of two lenses of grayish material which were seen on the east side and the west side of k13, but not seen in the middle. They can be clearly seen in both sections and cover the baqaya glacis, f109. Excavations in the east baulk of k23 show that f111 must be the eastward extension of the mud glacis, f152.

Recovery/Assignment
notes on recovery 2006-8-27 jW This feature consisted of two lenses of grayish material which were seen on the east side and the west side of k13, but not seen in the middle. They can be clearly seen in both sections and cover the baqaya glacis, f109. Excavations in the east baulk of k23 show that f111 must be the eastward extension of the mud glacis, f152. There are two possible explanations for the gap in the middle. First, since we were excavating with the large pick we may have inadvertently removed it. This is unlikely because the pickman is highly skilled and excavated in J3 last year. Second, the mud glacis could have been damaged after abandonment and partially washed away. This possibility is supported by the large number of high floating stones found in k12 during excavations there in MZ18. [Input File: Q827jW.j]

stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2012-10-07 jW First layer of accumulation (lens) deposited on the EDIII glacis f109. [Input File: Wx07jW.j]
typological reasons for assignment 2012-10-07 jW No ceramics or items recovered. [Input File: Wx07jW.j]
other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2012-10-07 jW What we can say is that this feature was deposited on the surface of the baqaya glacis f109 before accumulation f116. We speculate that the EDIII glacis was kept clean for several successive periods of occupation, which accounts for the general lack of ceramics and items in this covering accumulation. Since we know that general preservation of the EDIII temple mound structures began to lag in the Mittani period, we assign an early Mittani stratum to this feature. [Input File: Wx07jW.j]
