2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-09-11 lC Three big vertical stones resting on top of the hard layer f371. These stones are quite regular and almost rectangular in shape. They measure: f372.1 (70x28x60 cms), f372.2 (80x35x45 cms) and f372.3 (60x25x45 cms). Moreover they are almost at the same distance, about a meter, and they rest all on their narrow long side. Their position seems intentional and probably they are related to the structures f374 and f375, found just a little to the west. [Input: T912LC.j]
