Description (summary) 1992-07-28 rK square S of k168 [Input: ZH306lC3.j]
1996-07-22 jO Since features 101,113,114 and 134 do not have distinct floor surfaces such as plastering, they were not given different f# for their floors separate from the accumulation above. So the same feature no. is used for the accumulation and the surface holding it. [Input: G803RK.J]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 1996-07-07 jO We made a N section by digging 60 cm below the existing floor level. We could distinguish 5 layers of ac/floor in the section. They were assigned features numbers 109,110,113,114,115, successively, from the top to the bottom. [Input: G716RK.J]
1996-07-14 jO The extended part of the excavation (100 x 50) was dug deep down by removing the wadi accumulation up to the bottom of f115 when another floor accumulation appeared. It was assigned feature number f134. [Input: G803RK.J]
1996-07-15 jO Looking at the bottom and along the sides of the negative wall it is clear that the removed stones of the original wall went deep about 16-18 cm below the surface of the floor accumulation f134. In this case, f134 is the earliest floor that is associated with the wall, at least in k169. [Input: G803RK.J]
Strategy (projected or implemented) 1996-07-10 jO We will have one workman removing f119 in order to be able to dig through the floor ac (f110 and 101). [Input: G718RK.J]
1996-07-14 jO We decided to expand 100 cm to the S of k169 and 50 cm to the E [Input: G803RK.J]
1996-07-15 jO S k169 will be dug deeper to reach a layer from which we could get a better idea of the floors and/or accumulation in k169 and k168. The first feature to be removed is the wadi accumulation f135, S of f134. [Input: G803RK.J]
1996-07-18 jO We are going to trace the negative wall in the S of k169 to the S and to the E. [Input: G803RK.J]
Argument 1996-07-18 jO By removing the wadi ac in the S of k169 and by following alongside the negative wall towards the E and the S, it seems that the negative wall is extending to the S to k170 and the East. So we infer that there was no doorway opening from k169 to the S. Instead, the negative wall continued E until we reached the bottom stones of the wall. [Input: G803RK.J]
Notes on recovery 1996-07-06 jO Wadi accumulation is still present on the floor of k169. We will remove it in order to expose the layers of ac that parallel f101 in k168. [Input: G716RK.J]
