2003-07-29 jl inner circle of k27, radius from relay 124cm [Input: N806JL.j]
2003-08-24 jl This is a circular locus within the area of k27. It is a circle with a radius of 124 centimeters, and its center is also the center of k27. [Input: N824jl.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Strategy (projected or implemented) 2003-08-24 jl We created two new loci, k29 and k30. The inner locus, k29, is the circle of presumably uncontaminated material within the center of the ring, over one meter distant from the stone walls of the circle. [Input: N824jl.j]
Argument 2003-08-24 jl Although it is unusual to create a circular locus, we decided that it was necessary in this case. Our understanding of the circle k27 in the api tells us that later material was regularly being washed into the fissure and was transported down to earlier strata (for a modern example, see v171). This later contamination would corrupt (and, if fact, has corrupted) our pottery lots, potentially giving us inaccurate, later dates for the strata within the structure. Therefore, we needed a way to separate the potentially contaminated soil from uncontaminated material. [Input: N824jl.j]
