The pise walls had resistance readings far in excess of 4.5 kilograms per square centimeter, the maximum reading on this particular instrument(Soil Test, Inc. model CL-700). Bricks also had resistance readings in excess of the maximum, but broke at considerably less pressure. Regular fill had resistance readings of from 1.5 to 4.0. Fill of an ashy pit had a resistance reading of 0.75. -sg jw and gb discussed actions that could be taken in the final week to maximally advance the progress toward preparing the global record for A9. Two major tasks should be accomplished. First, the sections of the west baulk and north (west end) of k9 must be drawn, as they document the beginning of the use of terracing on this part of the tell. Second, we must attempt to assemble the stratigraphic record from the first season of A9(MZ10). Although some of the records are not here (final days of q logs, relay logs and stratigraphic log) we should be able to reconstruct the record from the feature log and some sketches left by jo, the supervisor that year. q 603.3 P2 ZSB2.13-3 q 603.2 P2 ZSB7-24 q 634.1 P2 ZSB2.13-3
