2. Identification

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-07-30 jW A hard-surfaced mud escarpment in k22 which abuts stone wall, f41, along its entire exposed length and slopes down to the southwest. It is covered by several accumulations and is covered by ash in some places. According to gB, it is most likely equivalent to the Ninevite V escarpment, J1 features 239 and 189, previously excavated. [Input file: S730JW.j]
2009-07-21 jW A hard, dense soil which abuts cut stone wall, f41, and may have served as a late phase escarpment for it. It appears to slope to the southwest. One lot of sherds from it, q289, was preliminarily evaluated as from the Mittani period by mKB. [Input file: T721JW.j]

3. Stratigraphy

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2009-07-22 jW This soil feature has previously been identified as a purpose-built mud escarpment, primarily because of its hardness and its proximity to stone wall, f41. As we have excavated it, we find that it covers a stone staircase, f205, three steps of which have been exposed which abuts f41. The surface of feature 74 follows the general slope of wall, f41, (NW to SE), its depth conforms with the steeper slope of the stairs, f205, which abut f41. It is consistently dense and hard-packed. The better view is that f74 is a natural escarpment for wall, f41. It was formed when loess began to cover the steps of ^strc2. The path along the wall continued in use and it was compacted by the weight of those who walked there. [Input file: T722JW.j]
