Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2008-03-05 pC The german excavation arrived at this elevation (87.16) dating it to the akkad period. In J6, east of k100, was excavated a floor surface at this level dated to end of Akkad. Therfore f194 is dated to the Third millennium, here h35MZA [Input: S305PC.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2005-09-14 mH Erosion and collapse [Input: S215PC.j]
2011-05-16 cJC Floor layers at the same elevation as the lowest step of f130. This feature is between the pebble floors dated to earley EDIII strata but before the later transitional EDIII such as the f381. [Input: V516CJC.j]
2011-11-21 cJC This feature is one of the topmost features excavated in k100. The trench was already very deep from previous excavations, once the backfill was removed this feature was one of the first exposed. Based on the stratigraphy, it is just above the pebble pavements associated with the early EDIII but it may be contaminated. I have assigned it to this strata based on the connections to the underlying features but further excavations in k110 could help illuminate the dating of this level. [Input: VY21CJC.j]
