Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-08-23 cvp Deep multi-layered accumulation in k31, located in the area south of the possible outer face of the terrace wall. The layer continues in the north part of the trench but, as is cut by f213, we give to that area another feature number, f209. [Input: Q817CVP.j]
2006-10-04 mS soft, sandy and granular accumulation. This is the same accumulation as f209 but was given a different feature number because they were cut by a natural trench f213. [Input: QX04MS.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2006-10-04 mS This accumulation above the top of the wall f72 but is also apparently cut by a trench that runs along the front of the wall. This trench, f213 seems to run along the entire wall in J1 and was most like formed by rain soaking in along the face of the wall and may have formed when there was just the edge of the terrace marked by stones. Since f212 was cut by this it may belong to this stratum. [Input: QX04MS.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2006-10-04 mS this accumulation is immediately at the top of the wall so it is very possible that the stones were just covered and it would be the first layer of abandonment. But this is a natural sedimentation and it may be impossible to be totally precise in strata assignment. [Input: QX04MS.j]
