Description (summary) 2004-07-14 ap we consider this layer the southern baulk of k12 also if practically it represents the topsoil of the unit. f63 covers f132 (secondary Apron), f133 and f134 which are the two gaps between the secondary Apron and the oval wall and between the primary and secondary aprons.

Recovery/Assignment

Strategy (projected or implemented) 2004-07-14 ap We started to dig this unit removing the soil above the steps of the so called "second apron" considering the top soil as a baulk. The bottom elevation is different and depends from the features which are below f63. [Input: O801AP.j]
