Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2002-09-19 lR This item was discovered while clearing f299 pit. The item lies a few centimeters below the end of the pit. The body of the ceramic vessel was noticed first and part of the neck exposed. The jar rests at an angle (rim facing east) and appears slightly compressed with an egg shape. We will leave this jar in place until we come down on it from the top. [Input: -MX12-99.j]
2002-09-22 lR Three ceramic vessels were found with the body i156. One next to the feet i122 (similar to a19) and two vessels next to the head, i139 complete jar and i157 that was under i139. [Input: N303LR.j]
Procedures 2002-09-22 lR We first removed i122 and i139 since we did not want to leave the ceramic vessels exposed over night. At the lab I removed the soil inside and made them into samples i146 and i147. The jar i122 was filled with soil containing some bone fragments but i139 only contained a dirt coating at the top and when removed exposed it hollow. gB suggested that it may have been filled with liquid which evaporated leaving only a coating of soil at the very top.
