Introduction

The J5 stratigraphic sequence, although tied together as part of the overall sequence of the AP, JP and BA sequences, is currently based primarily on the data from J5. For this reason, the sequence used here is the J5A sequence. It is the first of the J5 sequences. Eventually it will be incorporated into a large JP sequence. The sequence has many gaps, as these strata are represented in other areas (notably the other J areas such as J1, J5 and J6.
The strata in J5 are divided amongst several phases. The majority of the J5 materials excavated so far date to Phase 3, or Phase 7. These phases correspond to the EDIII and Mittani periods respectively.
