Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Definition 2009-08-29 cJC lens type d [Input: T829CJC.j]
Description (summary) 2009-08-01 cJC Small lens in the south portion of k110. The lens is a slightly harder brown and gray material and the main portion of it contains a high concentration of sherds and pebbles. The portion to the south does not contain as many sherds or pebbles but has the same soil matrix. It is irregular in shape and does not appear to be a floor as the sherds and pebbles are not aligned and are not lying flat. The material is very hard and has a coarse texture. It is similar to f357. [Input: T801CJC.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2009-08-20 cJC This feature appears to be a lens that is a part of the same depositional process that created all the natural accumulations of f357 and is perhaps not a distinct depositional event but instead is a small deposit within the large deposition of several natural accumulations that make up f357. [Input: T820CJC.j]
