2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-10-09 jW This feature, consisting of what turned out to be multiple layers of accumulation, ran N-S along the E baulk of k13. It was dug as a narrow exploratory trench in order to trace the layer of baqaya found along the N baulk and to determine the stratigraphic sequence of any accumulations that overlaid it. We found that f116 was a mix of material from accumulations f114, f121 and f120, each of which was distinctive, but thin. [Input: QX09JW.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on recovery 2006-08-16 jW This feature, consisting of what turned out to be multiple layers of accumulation, ran N-S along the E baulk of k13. It was dug as a narrow exploratory trench in order to trace the layer of baqaya found along the N baulk and to determine the stratigraphic sequence of any accumulations that overlaid it. We found that f116 was a mix of material from accumulations f114, f121 and f120, each of which was distinctive, but thin. These features were then excavated separately in the remainder of locus k13.

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2012-10-07 jW Several layers of natural accumulation that rest on the EDIII glacis f109 that were not immediately excavated so that aggregate a7 above it could be photographed. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-10-07 jW Ceramics have not been fully analyzed. [Input: WX07JW.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2012-10-07 jW Soil in this feature consisted of three layers equal to f114, f121, and f120. The stratum assigned is that of the lowest (earliest) f120. [Input: WX07JW.j]
