Time Sequencing

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on time sequencing 0000-00-00 MKB DATE of FEATURE (j718) There is little evidence of the Bitumen Use Tradition in this feature, although there is some. -- The feature is probably later in the Simple ware tradition because the large and medium vessels are still being made in CH and FC ware, few WS sherds are found, also an indication of later in the SWTradit is the amount of ROG and related red wares. [Input: JA12-J.j]

4. TYPOLOGY

Morphology

Roster Date Author Record
Components (within element) 0000-00-00 MKB POTTERY (j718) The sherd lots from this feature contain many CH and FC sherds from large and medium vessels; these do not help with the dating. -- Early sherds include coarser varieties of conical cups with string cut bases, some WS ware although this is not plentiful, some S ware cup and bowl rims, but again not plentiful, a few M ware sherds, some Bi-Color including one bowl rim which is thicker than usual although the shape is the same as the usual BC bowls. Two body sherds of the buff variety of Rough ware. One of the sherds has a heavy chalk streaking on the exterior, probably a local variety of Scrabble Ware (see note below). -- Bowls with a scraped lower body are found in two types: a body shape which is more rounded is later than the Simple Ware Tradition and common in the Bitumen Use Tradition. Also found in this feature are earlier straight sided bowls with a scraped lower body and a sharp angle between the body wall and the base. [Input: JA12-J.j]
