Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2005-08-29 jW Lens of ashy material with well defined boundaries found in the NW quarter of k104. In the far NE corner, it is level and sealed with a layer of bakhia. As one proceeds to the east and to the south, the elevation diminishes, but one can trace the horizontal border easily as one moves away to the south. At this point it seems as if the burial was placed in clean fill, f59, laid atop the compacted ash. [Input: Q302JW2.j]

Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2006-04-26 jW Part of series of compacted fills forming temple mound behind monumental wall, f11. [Input: Q426JW.j]
2012-10-07 jW Only the top was exposed. The rest was only partially excavated and seen mostly in section, therefore strata assignment is tentative. [Input: WX07JW.j]
