Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-08-25 lH natural accumulation in the test probe which we oppened as f165, to the east and above the revetment wall, f3, which turned to be a new locus, k101. This accumulation has a compact, light gray and powdery texture. It covered more than three big limestones that take the whole area of locus, k101, so we stopped excavating in it. [Input: S825LH1.j]
