2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2005-08-29 jW A layer of reddish soil with bakhia-like inclusions, apparently abutting the compacted ash, f64 and seen only in the NE corner of k104. There is no evidence that accumlations above the burial were cut, then filled with this soil. We presume that it is one of a number of different types of fill, brought from diverse places in and around the tell, to build up the temple mound behind the monumental wall, f11. [Input: Q302JW2.j]
