Description (summary) 2005-08-16 sC Pedestal of stone f185. [Input: P911MH.j]
2005-08-21 sC f186 is a natural accumulation on the pedestal of the stones f185.1 and f185.2 in k15. The top surface (right below the stones) has a medium soft texture, while the pedestal in itself has a crumbly texture, soft and fine, that once dried, rubbs off. f186 abuts (and it is the same of) f168 and f195 (the S baulk of k15).
