Description (summary) 2009-08-24 sE Natural, pale-brown accumulation in k106 between the ^esc1 and the line of stones of f284. It is very hard and composed by small, almost powdery grains; it abuts the stone blocks of both f284 to the north and f188 to the south. [Input: T824SE1.j]

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2009-08-26 jW ACTION: We excavated the remaining floor accumulation, f282, covering the pebble pavement, f287, which abuts the first escarpment, ^esc1, to the west.
RESULT: There is some erosion in the pavement's southeastern corner, probably caused by water flow along the southwestern most row of escarpment stones. Sherds from the pavement and from the floor accumulaion above have been idenmtified by mKB as Late Ninevite V. [Input: T826JW.j]
Strategy (projected or implemented) 2009-08-24 jW PROPOSED ACTION: We will remove accumulation, f282, to the south of the southernmost line of exposed stones in the first escarpment, ^esc1.
PURPOSE: To see if there is another row of stones to the south and if not, what does abut the escarpment. [Input: T824JW.j]
