Introduction

You will find below a list of the individuals directly involved in the publication of unit J4.

You will find in the Mozan sitewide digital book some general comments on the nature of the tasks reflected in the titles we use and on the importance we lay on the identification of authorship.

Also in the Mozan digital book you will find a list of the sitewide support staff whose contributions have been of course just as indispensable for the proper functioning of the overall J4 operation.

If no year is indicated, then that person’s tenure was for all the seasons of excavation in J4.
