Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Definition 2004-06-30 mH accumulation [Input: O630MH.j]
2004-07-04 mh lens [Input: O704MH.j]
Description (summary) 2004-06-30 mH Associated with a line of small stones running south from f14 in k5. These small stones and this feature are lower in elevation than f14. The feature contains the line of stones, stones slightly to the east of the line as well as more stones to the west of it. It extends roughly 350cm east and 400cm south of m3604. While the soil matrix is not different from f8 above it and to the east of it, I made it into a separate feature in anticipation of a floor possibly associated with the stones. [Input: O630MH.j]

Lack of expected information 2010-08-09 yM no descriptive attributes were recorded [Input: U809YM.j]
Evolution 2004-07-04 mh Instead of defining this feature as accumulation, it is better to use lens since the stones bounding it do not seem to be walls. [Input: O704MH.j]
