Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-08-17 pC a hard and compact layer located in k82, which was labeled during the excavation 'glacis'. It has a very characteristic hard and compact surface with samll pebble inclusions and few sherds lying flat. In the center of k82 is almost flat and approximatly 150cm north of wall f227 it slopes sharply south-east (30°) until it stops against wall f227 [Input: T818PC.J]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2009-08-17 pC Yesterday was the last day of excavation and we were not able to expose all f300. It seems broken in the western part of k82 where is a large ash lens. In the eastern portion of k82 f300 slopes sharply and therefore it was not possible to expose it all while lot of accumulations cover it. On the north should be instead abutting wall f218 and on the west wall f129 [Input: T818PC.J]

Stratum (to which element belongs) 2010-07-29 pC s63J6A [Input: U815PC.J]
Phase (to which element belongs) 2010-07-29 !! h3pJ6A [Input: U815PC.J]
Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2010-07-30 pC is later than f129 and f227, while abuts them: but still not clear if f300 abuts wall f227 or wall f227 cuts it. I opt more for the first possibility, therefore f300comes later or is contemporary to f227 [Input: U730PC.J]
