Recovery/Assignment

Daily notes about recovery of elements 2008-07-22 lR Broken jar found while removing f27, brick melt. We initially anticipated the brick melt to be deeper since in the trench, the brick melt was approximately 10 cms then brickfall underneath, totally 30 cms until reaching the ash. After removing 10cms in the western half of k3, ash was found with i11 surfacing within the ash. The base is at a slight oblique angle. A large tannur fragment was found immediately to the east and may be associated with the jar. [Input: S722LR.j]
Notes on recovery 2008-07-23 lR Removed the jar today after mKB looked at it. The jar while fragmented appears quite complete. After the jar was removed the area was scraped and cleaned revealing several cobblestones below, forming a pavement f43. This contextualizes the jar, associating it with a floor and tannur f29.
