2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster	Date	Author	Record
Description (summary)	2008-07-13	lH	ds Natural accumulation under topsoil in k23. It is an aeolian deposit acted upon by water, which formed a hard crust which reduces to powder when scraped with a trowel. There are scattered soft pockets, probably formed by penetrating roots and animal burrows. When picked, it breaks into chunks and dust. [Input: S713LH.j]
