General notes on photos 2001-08-01 jlw loci k10 and k11 are stratigraphically interesting because there has been a lot of building and remodeling during Phase 4 and Phase 5. These units ascend the slope of the tell from south to north and, although generally the earliest architecture is to the south, there are Phase 4 structures in both loci. Phase 5 is found only near the surface in k11, but natural erosion down the tell may have destroyed structures to the south. The NW quadrant of k11 had only been partially excavated in MZ6, and we have only removed the pits from the revion of the photograph this season. Never the less, one can see evidence of several different phases of building here. The major structure illustrated by this view was categorized as bricks, f295. In fact the situation is a bit more complex. There does appear to be at least one layer of bricks laid upon some type of relatively clean, dense fill or packing. However as can be seen in section along the west baulk, there is another line of bricks above more fill that indicates that the last use occurred at this higher level. Similar elevations are the only evidence linking the bricks in the section and the pise wall, f225. The rectangular cutouts to the floor level are mini-sections taken from the edges of pit walls. On balance, the situation is complex and the next time we work in k11, we must remove f295 by forming long sections which can then be studied. The short sections we now have are not useful for understanding what occurred here. [Input: L926JW.j]
