Summary 2007-08-11 sC i115 has been wrongly attribuited to some pottery sherds found inside a child burial (a20). In the field these pottery sherds were though to be part of a jar, but, later they turn to belong to i114, i.e. the ceramic vessel found within a20, the child burial in k206. [Input: R809SC.j]

Definition 2007-10-19 gB jar [Input: RX19GB.j]
Description (summary) 2002-09-29 lR combined ceramic vessel with i114. This item should be found as i114. [Input: -MX12-99.j]
2002-10-11 lR flat base jar slightly convex base type xfx. This item belongs to a burial a20 in which the remains of a small child were laid across the sherds of this incomplete broken vessel. Jar contains three incised lines for decoration and is a light green color. Jar has been restored. This jar contains i114 since initially we perceived that i114 and i115 were two different jars. When the body was removed and the jars removed it turns out that i114 and i115 are one jar. The label on the object reads i115 and should be referred to as i115. [Input: MX12LR4.j]
2005-08-31 wo reconstructed round jar, complete rim and abour 1/2 of body, incised bands at base of neck and shoulder [Input: P831WO.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Daily notes about recovery of elements 2002-09-13 lR this jar rests on a "L" shape brick installation. Relays taken at middle of rim top and one at the base of i114 south side. This jar is fragmented and lies on one side with an intact rim. Body appears to be split in half and incomplete. Another jar i114 lies next to it touching i115 and both appear to rest on the same surface but when the surrounding area was excavated no traces of a floor were identified. This is quite puzzling since the brick installation and jars must be sitting on a floor unless this is a burial. It is currently unclear whether i115 and i114 constitute the same jar, both are the same color but there is currently too much soil to determine this. [Input: MX12LR4.j]
Strategy (projected or implemented) 2002-09-13 lR we will remove the fill inside these jars to see whether they are a burial then remove them [Input: MX12LR4.j]
