2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2003-08-12 jl This is the brown layer with occasional black seeds in the south-west quadrant. It overlaid f428. This was one area of the locus where we could not clearly find f426/f427, the strong black seed layer. Given the clear curve and slope of the strong black seeds up to the edge of f422, it seems clear that the seeds did not cover this area with the same thickness (if at all) that they covered the rest of the circle. Perhaps this is evidence of gb and mkb's proposed small pits, which were dug for the performance of the ritual, and the seeds were only scattered within the area of the pit. We will have to see more layers of seeds to know for certain if this trend continues. [Input: N812jl.j]
