3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 1996-07-10 jO after cleaning the W side of f119, on the top of what was left for making a section we found a third brick that belongs to the step f119. [Input: G718RK.J]
Argument 1996-07-10 jO The step is plastered at the top but no plastering appears at the N or S sides. We have found a comparable layers of floor ac to be higher on the N side of the doorway than the S. This still needs further validation. However, if the floor level S of doorway a14 was lower, the bricks of f119 would have formed a step up. In such a case we would expect plaster both on the top and on the S. face of f119. An indication of curving of the plaster toward this face may suggest its having existed at some time. Since the door would have been on this side of the doorway, closing against the steps could have affected their condition. [Input: G718RK.J]
