Description (summary) 2010-01-20 sC This is a natural accumulation in k84, below f87, in the southern portion of the locus (200cm N and 400cm W to m3830). This feature presents patches of compact and soft soil, when picked it is crumbly and a bit dusty when removed; being right below the toposil layer, f88 is rich of pebbles, stones and rooths. [Input: U120SC.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on recovery 2010-01-21 sC The bottom elevation recorded at the end of the 2006 excavation season is not the bottom elevation of f88, but only the lower elevation reached in the S portion of k84, since then we stop digging in this portion of the locus since we changed strategy. We decided to dig only the N portion of the locus together with the S portion of k83, and we assigned a new locus number to this 'new locus': k100. [Input: U121SC.j]
