2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-09-04 jW A highly compacted natural floor accumulation above glacis, f185. It is seen only in section in k2 because it was excavated in a previous season during the search for the western extension of the revetment wall system which originates in unit J2 to the east and continues west through units J3 and J1 and now into J5. It is stone-like in hardness and texture, and probably represents the surface of the glacis which was exposed to rain and sunlight. [Input: S904JW.j]
