Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2008-03-12 pC the glacis, consisting in a very hard sloping surface, which follow the slope of the layers underneath [Input: S211PC2.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Recovery/Assignment

Roster Date Author Record
Argument 2008-03-12 pC probably due to its hardness and compact surface it was layed in order to permit the flow of water from wall f128; it can be the same kind of layer found in J1 at the same position in front of revetment wall [Input: S211PC2.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2008-03-05 pC elevation and layers above dated to phase h1JPA [Input: S305PC.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2005-09-14 mH Glacis associated with f288. [Input: S215PC.j]
2011-05-16 cJC This hard sloping layers is the lowest level excavated and abuts the bottom of the revetment wall (f128). It is under EDIII accumulations and so is dated to the same period as the other EDIIIb accumulations above it. [Input: V516CJC.j]
2011-11-21 cJC Hard gray layer associated with the construction of the monumental access. The type of contact with f127, the flanking wall, was not recorded originally but it likely runs underneath. In future excavations when the baulk just south of f127 is removed this question can be investigated further. [Input: VY21CJC.j]
