Description (summary)	2006-08-17	vVE	Feature f541 lies under the natural accumulation f537 and possibly cuts the harder natural accumulation f542 in k106. It is a very slightly reddish light brown deposit. It is very similar to f542 except that it is much softer. [Input: Q817VE.j]
	2006-08-19	vVE	Although it is still unclear whether or not f541 was a shallow pit or not, it is now clear that it overlies part of f542 perhaps even cutting it as a shallow pit. It could also have been a small gully caused by rainwater. In this deposit several large stones were found. [Input: Q819VE1.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster	Date	Author	Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements	2006-08-17	vVE	Excavation of f541 was started today after we had removed the overlying deposit of f537. [Input: Q817VE.j]
	2006-08-19	vVE	We continued to excavate f541 and after one pick run we could close it because we had reached its bottom. Under f541 we saw the same hard deposit as in f542 and this means that f541 overlies f542 and was perhaps even cut into it. [Input: Q819VE1.j]
	2006-08-23	vVE	The remaining deposits of f541 in the Northern baulk of k106 were excavated today, except for the last easternmost meter which will be excavated as part of the eastern baulk of k107. This is done because we need to draw the section of the eastern side of eastern baulk of k107. [Input: Q823VE.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment	2007-07-31	mO	underlyng deposit f552 [Input: R731MO1.j]
	2012-08-26	jW	Immediate post-Mittani natural accumulation which is said to cut accumulation f542, [Input: W826JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment	2012-08-26	jW	Ceramics not yet fully analyzed. The few items recovered are ubiquitous. [Input: W826JW.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications	2012-08-26	jW	It probably is fill of a pit cut into f542. [Input: W826JW.j]
Notes on time sequencing	2006-09-04	vVE	The underlying deposit f552 can be positively assigned to s11 and therefore these deposits are assigned to s10. They seem to be a continuation of f550. The stones that are embedded in s542 must then also belong to s10. [Input: Q904VVE.j]
