Description (summary) 2005-08-29 jW A hard, dense, ashy accumulation below laminations f56 in k103. It is very difficult to break with the large pick; in fact several workmen wanted us to rent a jackhammer or to add water to the surface to aid in excavation. [Input: Q302JW2.j]

Deposition

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on deposition 2005-08-31 jW This accumulation shares similarities with, but is not identical to, the ashy layer k43 in k101. For example, f43 is very gray and has small charcoal inclusions, while f63 seems to be mixed with more loess, which gives it a grayish brown hue. Charcoal inclusions have yet to be found in f63.

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2006-04-26 jW Under and earlier than laminations f56 but above layers that have been positively identified as Mittani. [Input: Q426JW.j]
2012-10-07 jW Natural accumulation below laminar accumulation f56. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-10-07 jW Ceramics were not fully analyzed. Items (shell beads, figurines, charcoal, and stone tools) are consistent with sustained occupation. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2012-10-07 jW Top elevation roughly equivalent to f43 but f63 continues much deeper; therefore, middle Mittani phase is appropriate. [Input: WX07JW.j]
