2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-07-30 jW Floor accumulation covering stone installation, f225, in the south half of k106. The soil is moist, reflecting a partial barrier to water penetration into f225. The east half of the feature was sealed by Mittani floor f213. The west half was sealed by a surface crust. However, the west half was also in the path of a series of gullies which may have cut the surface of f226 and deposited some Mittani sherds. A preliminary analysis of the ceramics in lot q325 shows a mix of phases, from ED2 to Mittani. Her preliminary assessment dated this feature to ED3, indicating that the stone installation was at least that old. One small piece of plastic was found near the north end of gigantic stone f216. Our best explanation is that it was carried down from above by a burrowing animal. [Input: T730JW.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2012-12-16 jW It is more likely that the plastic came from backfilling at the conclusion of these earlier excavations. Therefore it is more suitable to assign this feature to s0J5B. [Input: WZ17JW.j]
Substantive contradictions 2012-12-16 jW During excavation this feature, described as a floor accumulation, was said to be sealed to the west by a surface crust and to the east by Mittani floor f213. It was assigned to stratum s180bJ5B. Recovered ceramics ranged from Early Dynastic II to Mittani. Problematical was a piece of plastic found in the vicinity of a large stone, f216. At the time its presence was attributed to burrowing animimals even though it was over two meters below the surface. In previous seasons, this area adjacent to the EDIII revetment wall f189 had been partially excavated to trace the wall's outside face. [Input: WZ17JW.j]
