Notes on volumetric localization 2010-08-17 mM1 the measured bottom elevation (9331) exceeds the top (9299), which is impossible. q527 sits in f547 and has the same top elevation as f547, while f548, which is covered by f547 has a top elevation of 9271. Therefore I conclude that the top elevation is correct, while the bottom one is in error and should be about 9271. [Input: U817MM1.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2007-07-31 mO compact surface under top soil [Input: R731MO1.j]
2012-08-26 jW Compacted natural accumulation relatively close to the surface which may have been the site of a temporary encampment. [Input: W826JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-08-26 jW Ceramics have not been fully analyzed and the few items recovered are ubiquitous. [Input: W826JW.j]
Notes on time sequencing 2006-09-04 vVE Slightly under the top soil an old naturally compacted surface f547 was found with f546 and f544 resting upon it. These features are assigned to s6 because they show some ephemeral evidence of occupation long after the temple terrace had been covered. [Input: Q904VVE.j]
