2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-08-17 lC Collapsed stones, likely from walls f259 and f288. It is just the first level of stones, probably showing a collapse happened in different moments. It forms a sort of alignment running north to south, parallel to wall f259, about one meter far from it. The stone are medium to big in size and some lay flat, other are slightly inclined to the east. [Input: T815LC.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2009-08-17 lC Could these stones be something different from a collapse? Unfortunatly we can't date exactly the collapse of the eastern part (and if it's natural or a volontary manmade action) of ^str1, because of the later cuts. So could these stones be stored for the construction of the revetment wall? It seems that the accumulations below are still dating to the EDIII as shown by the sounding in k130. It is an interesting question, but so far we didn't get a clear answer, and the hypothesis of the collapse remains the most plausible. [Input: T815LC.j]
Evolution 2006-10-04 lC Further excavation will clarify if this large stone collapse can be divided in different levels, corresponding to different moments, of the collapse. From a stratigraphic point of view with some of the stones resting on f362 and other covered by f362 it seems plausible. [Input: V114LC.j]
