Description (summary) 0000-00-00 sc f244 is a accumulation located in the SW corner of k101 (it extends 98 E and 190N from r708)characterized by a very fine and loose texture and by a crumble consistence, and by the presence of little fragments of stones (especially where f244 abuts the W section in k101). When wet it is light brown in color, while dry assume a grayish coloration. [Input: P829SC.j]

Notes on recovery 0000-00-00 sc As noticed already while excavating other features in k103, f239 is characterized by different elevations. The top elevation in the N area is m3953 +8 -166, while on the S is m3953 +5 -166. The bottom elevation is m3953 +3 -170 in the N area, while on the S is m3953 +0 -174. It could be aslo interpreted as a lb [Input: P829SC.j]
