Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-08-06 jW Volumetric material contained in a saw-tooth shaped pillar of soil in k 100. It is the remnant of previously excavated J1 loci to define the extent and form of the revetment wall, f3. It is formed by previously excavated features and is being removed to enhance the sightlines from a new observation platform being constructed. [Input: S807JW.j]
