Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2008-03-05 pC elevation [Input: S305PC.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2011-05-16 cJC This feature is correlated with f350 that was dated to late EDIII based on ceramics, however, it is also at an elevation similar to brickfall layers. It is probably a mixed feature that was eroded and therefore includes both EDIII and Mittani. I have dated it to the later period as it is probably mixed. [Input: V516CJC.j]
2011-11-21 cJC Possibly the same as f350 which is dated by ceramics to Late EDIII, probably belongs to early Late EDIII based on stratigraphy. It is at roughly the same elevation as the lower brickfall and so is probably eroded. It may include mixed ceramics, especially if it was excavated on level plane, it would have been cut by erosion in the west. [Input: VY21CJC.j]
