Description (summary) 2004-06-29 jw Natural accumulation over several years in the far north part of k4 covering a previously excavated portion of the north baulk. [Input: O629JW.j]
2004-07-06 jw This accumulation in the N baulk of k4 covers a pise floor, f213, and has yielded a number of artifacts including restorable vessels, bronze, and grindstones. It abuts the AK walls and is at the same elevation as the stone platform in the sacral area nearby. It was at least partially sealed by accumulations above. [Input: O706JW2.j]

Notes on time sequencing 2004-07-06 jw The physical placement and the elevation of the artifacts and architecture suggests that this floor was part of an early reuse of the AK building of the palace, which would place it in Phase 3a. Some of the recovered jars and cups are ambiguous in type, so an analyis of the pottery from lots q486, q474, and q469 would be particularly useful in establishing a baseline for post-palace occupation in this part of the tell. [Input: O706JW2.j]
2004-07-10 mkb I looked at q469, q474, q486 as requested for the date. All can be dated to Phase 3. In addition from this feature is a Bi-Color ware jar i122; this is the first time we have had a whole jar in this ware although we did know that jars could be made in this ware from the curvature of some body sherds over the years. We have had a number of BC bowls in previous seasons from other units. [Input: O710MKB.j]
