2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2005-08-06 gM Highly compacted surface, less than one meter in diameter, situated on the west side of k12. It's an area harder than the surrounding accumulation, f2, and has some little stones forming an arch. It's delimitated by stones, f5 in the SW corner of k12, and f6 in the center of k12. It could be some kind of usage surface, but only excavating it will we have a better image of it. [Input: Q302JW.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2005-08-22 gM At elevation of tannur top [Input: P822GM.j]
2012-10-07 jW Compacted soil surface that sits in natural accumulation f2. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-10-07 jW No ceramics or items recovered. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2005-08-22 gM Living surface with small stones. May have been used in conjunction with the tannur during times of scattered occupation. [Input: P822GM.j]
2012-10-07 jW Seems to surround the top of tannur f3. It is possible that the tannur was constructed as part of a pit, but this is unlikely as most are constructed above ground level. [Input: WX07JW.j]
