3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2009-08-17 pC at first seemed to me very similar to f164, for the color and consistence, and also because abuts wall f218. It is possible that the glacis/escarpment f164 (^glacis3) was cut also in the north in k82 from the hollow pit f199. [Input: T818PC.J]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2010-07-30 pC same as f275, is tentatively dated to Late Third Millennium on the base of the elevation, location and characteristics of the soil, very similar to ^glacis3 [Input: U730PC.J]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2010-09-19 mKB date in the middle of the ED III period, typical folded rim jars with deep interior groove from early ED III, but also the same type of jar with thinner and less deep indicating that it is middle ED III, also indicating middle ED III are the very finely smoothed Simple ware sherds. One body sherd out of place in this context is a late Ninevite V incised decorated sherd. [Input: U919MKB2.J]
