Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-08-13 vVE Approximately 5 cm vertical slice of soil constituting the old south baulk of trench B6, excavated by a German team several years ago. It overlays the stones of the second apron, f532. [Input: Q813VE.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2006-08-13 vVE We cleaned the South section of the German trench B6 by cutting it back approximately 5 cm. The deposit that was removed in this proces was defined as f512. Along the entire length of this section, except for the western most part, is a row of large stones that is a continuation of the second apron. After we cleaned this section we could distinguish no separate layers: under the top soil began a natural accumulation that seems everywhere to rest immediately upon the stones of the second apron. While removing the dirt that had come from the section and that had piled up at the foot of the stones q502.1 was found. It came from the dirt on which the largest stone of the top of the second apron rest, as was evident from the exactly fitting impression in that accumulation. [Input: Q813VE.j]
