This is a photgraphic study of the deposits which formed the glacis associated with the earlier revetment wall, f189, (not shown but just beyond the right edge of the photo) in locus k2, which was not excavated this season. In a previous excavation to trace the revetmet wall, all soil features above it were excavated. However, we can see in section that under and behind the wall stones was a layer of baqaya, f185. There was a hard surface, f191, above the baqaya which would have met the top wall stones and formed the surface of the temple mound behind the revetment wall. This surface was covered by a layer of ash, f190. [Input: S922JW.j] |
