Summary 2009-09-09 cJC Fill of erosion cut f376. It is soft and similar to the natural accumulation immediately above (f365). It extends across k5 near the apron and into k15. It contains some larger sherds and is brown and flaky in consistency. [Input: T901CJC.j]

Description (summary) 2009-08-08 cJC This feature is composed of a reddish brown matrix with some gypsum inclusions. It is medium hard and comes apart partially in flakes. It is similar to f365 which covered it. [Input: T808CJC.j]
2009-08-19 cJC After we excavated f367 we found it was an accumulation that filled in the erosion cut (f376). It is a natural accumulation with some larger sherds and pebbles in it that may have been deposited there when the erosion cut was filled by accumulations brought down the apron (f131) by water.

Recovery/Assignment

Argument 2009-08-08 cJC I think the plaster (f370) is either partially overlaying f367 or is embedded in f367 as it is very thin and damaged and seems to be part of the same matrix as f367. Because the plaster is so damaged it is difficult to assess its relationship to any of the features. [Input: T808CJC.j]
