Description (summary) 2008-08-26 lH Reddish granular accumulatin under a big limestones in the middle of the test probe, k102, which we opened above what we presume the original revetment wall in k12. The accumulations(f171, f175, f176)didn`t give us enough pottery sherds. So we removed one of the big limestones in the middle of k102 to collect more sherds from the feature under it, f178. The collected pottery sherds might help at the chronological understanding of the revetment wall in k12. We will put the stone which we removed back to its place, but above a plastic bag.
