Summary 2009-09-09 cJC Accumulation immediately to the west of f127, where it met with the curtian wall f344. It is composed of gray laminations overlaying the hard gray layer, f319. This feature was probably created by water collecting near the base of the corner of the two walls (f344 and f127). [Input: T901CJC.j]

2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2009-08-01 cJC Layer covering the hard gray layer (f319) in k14. This feature comes apart in flaky layers. It is probably composed of laminations created by water. It is a mix of the gray surfaces with brown softer soil. It is located to the south of where wall f334 was located. It is possible that the laminations were caused by the location of the wall. It is not very compacted. [Input: T801CJC.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2009-09-16 cJC This feature is possibly the same erosion and water damage that formed f339 and f371 and is thus assigned to the same feature. [Input: T916CJC.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2011-11-21 cJC Although this feature is directly on top of the f319 which was dated to the construction of the monumental access it appears to be considerably later. Any accumulations that may have overlaid f319 appear to have been removed by erosion. The thin laminations of these layers indicates the presence of water, probably water that caused the erosion f366. As a result I have assigned the damaged features in this corner near the flanking wall f127 to the same stratum as the major erosion event. [Input: VY21CJC.j]
