Description (summary) 2006-09-14 pC This is an accumulation above f127, the glacis layer, that covers all k72. f103 is crumble, soft in consistence and fine in texture (a bit dusty when removed). It has patches of harder and softer soil. It is characterized by the presence of melted bricks, pottery sherds, photolytis and pebbles. [Input: Q918PC.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Evolution 2010-03-01 sC By looking at the new data from the excavations carried out in 2009 in J06 unit, it is possible now to say that f103 is a brick-melt accumulation, as visible in v100, and is probably part of the dump^1, the brick-melt accumulation found throughout the whole J06 unit which spread in the S portion of J04 area as well. [Input: U301SC.j]
Notes on recovery 2010-01-23 sC f103 follow the slope of the tell mound, and slopes toward S; for this reason, between the N and S portion of the square there are approximately 15-20cm of difference in elevation. The elevation of f103 given as main, has been taken in the S portion of the locus. [Input: U123SC.j]
