Procedures 2005-08-08 sC We collapsed part of the natural accumulation of the E baulk of k100 -for safety reasons- into the bottom of k100 and then removed. [Input: P808AL.j]

Notes on contact association 2010-08-08 yM this feature is the result of a collapsed wall therefore it does not fit in our Harris matrix so no type of contact was assigned. [Input: U808YM2.j]

2011-05-16 cJC Mixed accumulations from the collapse of a trench wall. The collapse portion can be tentatively linked to the pavements and floors in front of the staircase in k100, therefore I have assigned it to this early strata. The context for this deposit is not seperated by feature, however, and may include deposits from other strata and so this feature should not be considered as part of the statistical analyses of this period. [Input: V516CJC.j]
2011-11-21 cJC This feature includes the scraping and cutting of EDIII accumulations in the lower part of k100. Although all the material is from the early layers it is impossible to assign this kind of operation to a specific strata, so it was left unassigned. [Input: VY21CJC.j]
