2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2010-10-07 jW Crusty surface of deteriorated mudbrick atop wall, f348 and fills, f351 and f352. It is of the approximate thickness and hardness of the baqaya glacis, f50 and f109, and probably served as an effective seal for features below. At the close of excavations we formally designated this layer as a feature and glacis. [Input: V206JW.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2012-10-07 jW A crusty surface which covers fills f351 and f352 and wall f348. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-10-07 jW No ceramics were recovered to date this surface, which was well-sealed by glacis f50 and f109. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2012-10-07 jW Nevertheless, the evidence is very strong for placing the crust in an LC3 stratum. [Input: WX07JW.j]
