Daily notes about recovery of elements | 2001-06-09 | fAB | We recovered some Khabur ceramic sherds that came out of the plastic covering separating backfill from previously excavated A13. These sherds are in q1 [Input: L630TR.j] |
2001-06-09 | lR | we finished removing the backfill and exposed the mud brick structure a1 [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-10 | fAB | Work continues to focus on cleaning k1 and k6, cleaning section, and more than 1/2 the workmen are still busy removing the berm. We hope it is finished tomorrow by breakfast. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-11 | lR | In order to find the foundation of a1 in k1 we decided to remove 15cm from the area north of the corner of a1 until the step. We called this feature f12 but did not finish excavating it today. Tomorrow we will remove the bricky mass on the SW corner to reach the wall and check to see if we encounter any defired bricks protruding out of the wall. We did find two stones in close proximity to the corner but appear not to be related to the mudbrick wall. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-14 | lR | tR and cC scraped the North section to find the cut between f27 and f28 and shaved off the small section in the middle of the locus to see this line better. q25 is a mixture of the two features since the baulk was shaved and was unable to keep the pottery separated; this is noted in the q log. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-07-04 | fAB | k1 has what may be the oldest material as yet uncovered in A16, a floor with no walls connected to it. [Input: L704FAB.j] | |
2001-07-23 | sV | To the North of a1, (outside the structure) we have a series of three floors coming out. The upper floor consists of pebble and sherd inclusions and can be associated with the stone foundation of the wall f114 found on the extreme North side of the locus (actually within the baulk/section). The floors are probably associated to an open area due to the irregular surface and slope of these floors (slopes west). Above the wall f7, which represents the northwest boundary of this outside area, we can see a 30cm reddish accumulation at the bottom of the wall f114, which belongs to phase 5c. To the west, there are a series of accumulations, which were cut by the pit f149 next to the northeast corner of a1. We assume that these accumulations still belong to phase 5b since they lie underneath the ashy layer f33 in k6. This layer also appears at the top of the East wall of a2, which is phase 5b. [Input: L818LR.j] | |
2001-07-25 | lR | In k1 we predict that this will be the most time consuming and slowest area to excavate since in the East section of A10 we see layers of sherd and pebble floors going down. We are leaving the wall in the Northwest corner f114 to see if it continues down. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
2001-07-26 | lR | In k1 we are removing another 15cm of a reddish brown soil throughout the area. In the Eastern side 50cm from the East baulk the soil has changed from a gray color to black likely the result of localized burning. A large amount of purple and green "kiln waste" chunks were found yesterday in the Northwest area next to the wall f114. In "kiln waste" I am referring to overfired material, which can be vitrified dung or clay. The soil is soft, ashy white in color with lots of burnt pottery and kiln waste. This localized firing pit continued 5-10cm down which exposed a chunky red layer below with blocky pieces of clay f173. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
Strategy (projected or implemented) | 2001-06-09 | lR | We plan to excavate the southwest side of the locus at the corner of the wall where f4 and f7 intersect. We will try to uncover the base of the wall. [Input: L630TR.j] |
2001-06-17 | fAB | see Incidentals\strategy under 2001-6-17 [Input: L617FAB.j] | |
2001-07-16 | lR | we will remove the east baulk in k1 after CI has drawn the section. [Input: L818LR.j] |

Daily notes about recovery of elements | 2001-06-09 | fAB | Today is the first day of excavation and we temporarily strung this square. The surveyor will be available tomorrow morning. [Input: L630TR.j] |
2001-06-10 | lR | We opened up k2 today. The workmen have leveled off the NE section since the Tell has a slope in order to eventually make the whole locus one level. We did not collect the pottery from the first 10-15cm (topsoil) since it would most likely be out of context. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-11 | lR | Continued removing ^ts on the NE side & area is still not leveled. A small pit was identified on the NE corner on the North baulk & was assigned f13- it later became apparent that it was an animal hole; a small amount of pottery was collected. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-12 | lR | Today we continued to remove the topsoil and found brickfall f15 underneath. One big pick run was done; then we stopped for the day in this locus. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-25 | lR | In k2 we cut a trench running North-South in the middle of the locus to determine the depth of the brickfall. The trench was 35cm below the rest of the locus on the East and West sides when ashy pockets started appearing. This could be the end of the brickfall with an ashy accumulation or just ashy pockets in the ^bf and the ^bf continues down. We stopped at this level and excavated the remainder of the locus. We did make the trench a separate locus k102 [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-26 | lR | we are removing the west baulk [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-07-25 | lR | In k2 we are excavating the whole locus West of f132. This area contains large amounts of pottery in comparison to k6,k5,and k1, which is within a brown-gray matrix and is most likely the same pit as k6. The sherds contained no pattern and were not positioned in a way to suggest that it was a pavement or floor. Currently we are digging in f161 interface level with plans to change the feature tomorrow due to the pottery change. These layers are probably related to the sherd layers seen in the North section. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
2001-07-26 | lR | In k2, yesterday at the end of the day we defined the area with the large amount of pottery as a separate pit, a kind of "sherd pit" since a large amount of compacted pottery was isolated in that area. Currently this pit is located within the southwest corner but yesterday it extended throughout the locus thus the pottery from this feature is mixed with the feature above it. The sherd pit is f170 and was completely excavated today. We made a new feature for the accumulation around this pit and it is most likely the same matrix as the fill on top. This pit, although smaller, contained more sherds than the sherd pit in k6. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
2001-07-29 | lR | In k2 we cleaned all the sections to see the pit fill which shows a series of layers of gray f171, a sterile silty fine powder lense, and granular sandy pink lense with pottery and pebbles which reminds me of material which has been exposed to water for long periods of time where the heavier material, pebbles pottery and granular material sinks to the bottom and the silty fine powder lense forms at the top. [Input: L728LR.j] | |

Daily notes about recovery of elements | 2001-06-12 | lR | k4 was opened today with the first 20cm excavated as topsoil. [Input: L630TR.j] |
2001-06-25 | lR | A possible drain has been identified running alongside the wall f52 on the North side. We defined the bricks, which are a pinkish color and found on the south side a little niche where there are no bricks. We are presuming that this niche is an outlet area for the drain to pass through the wall. On the other side we also defined the bricks but they end about one meter from the East baulk. It is possible that the bricks collapsed and caused a jumble on the North side. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-26 | lR | We have shifted more workmen to excavate in this area since it is the highest in elevation [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-07-02 | tR | We began to expose what appears to be a small retaining wall of sorts, which we called f80 in k4. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-07-03 | tR | In k4 we have an accumulation, which is f81 that gb suggested may have been cut due to erosion after a period of abandonment before the brickfall. Our strategy is to go down in k105 and cut a section so we will be able to better understand the deposition. We have tentatively named k3 and k4 as k106, but we will consult with gb or fab before making it final. [Input: L630TR.j] | |

Daily notes about recovery of elements | 2001-06-09 | lR | most of the backfill has been removed except for the western side, which should be removed by early tomorrow. [Input: L630TR.j] |
2001-06-10 | fAB | Work continues to focus on cleaning k1 and k6, cleaning section, and more than 1/2 the workmen are still busy removing the berm. We hope it is finished tomorrow by breakfast. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-10 | lR | Continued to remove the backfill. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-06-14 | lR | tR and cC scraped to see if any more bricks were visible; none were found and came upon several layers of accumulation f22, from above a living surface. The layers are reddish on the top with an ashy gray underneath, tR tried to follow this accumulation but it was difficult due to its thickness in certain areas, the ^aa curls up along the wall which is f8. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
2001-07-16 | lR | we are removing both baulks and are considering removing all the baulks in the area for aerial photos. [Input: L818LR.j] | |
2001-07-25 | lR | We are currently the deepest in k6 since we began excavating this locus a few days ago. We are calling the material below a2 a pit, the same pit that we see in A12 North section that extends to the East in A15. This material f153 contains approx 20cm of interface that changed to gray ashy fill. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
2001-07-26 | lR | In k6, the section has been cleaned and scraped and we can see the interface between house accumulation from a2 and the beginning of the pit, which forms a nice clear line. The house accumulation f153 is a reddish brown color that extends about 20cm below the bricks with a thin band of bright orange-red clay under this (approx 3cm thick). This band extends through the North baulk into k2 area, which leads us to believe that this is the same pit. Under this thin band is a unified gray that we have referred to as pit fill f157. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
2001-07-28 | lR | In k6, we noticed at the end of the day on Thursday that more red was appearing in the western section. We had noticed earlier that the fill material was mixed with small pieces of reddish clay and made it a new feature f157. Now the material is completely red clay and after scraping the section, we noticed distinct clear brick lines, red bricks with brown mortar and assigned it f181 wall. A plaster line is also visible in section. The bricks do not hold together but resemble moist clay, making it difficult to find the face. It was not until we cut back the section that we could see these brick lines. These bricks are running north south, east of the west baulk. In the western area a tannur was found f180 in the gray fill of the pit and appears it was cut by the pit a13. The eastern area contains ash and is probably still pit fill while the western area is reddish. In k6 north section the accumulation from a2 is seen very nicely which forms a bowl. The gray underneath forms bands of lighter gray sloping west to east with the western portion higher. Alternating layers of gray are seen, light gray, dark, light, dark forming a bowl shape towards the east. If this is a pit, then it is quite large for it must extend the same length to the east making the pit almost 10 meters in diameter. [Input: L728LR.j] | |
2001-07-29 | lR | In k6, they are still continuing to remove the gray material to the east, and are coming down on red. This is probably the end of the pit as we start a new layer seen in A12 section, a red layer f190. We met with gB today to discuss the phases, and he suggested that the fill we are excavating in k6,k5,and k2 is not a pit but large hollows created by depressions in the palace that conditioned the topography which then was used as dumps. So they were not cut, but natural in a sense that they occurred naturally after the palace collapsed. These hollows provided a ground for dumping which was filled up with 5a material but in the lower end of the hallow we find strata 4 material underneath. This level may be the strata to which the tannur f180 and the accumulation around it belong to. fAB mentioned that the tannur may be related to the tannur found in A12 which was on top of the palace wall.

2001-06-12 | lR | In k7 bricks were noticed on the surface and a cleaning was done which exposed three walls and a circular jar located in either a doorway, niche, or pit. We are not sure of the wall's (f18) width since we are unable to find the edge in the north; brickfall f21 makes it difficult to see this and on the southern face of wall f18, it is very smooth and appears plastered. A basalt grinding stone was also found next to the wall and is still in place. [Input: L630TR.j] | |
