Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2005-09-14 mH Immediately above a deposit dated to Phase h1JPA with pottery data. [Input: S215PC.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2005-09-14 mH Possible Phase h1JPA use deposit in k14. [Input: S215PC.j]
2011-11-21 cJC Part of the later EDIII deposits in J2. Although the elevation is below the base of the revetment wall this is due to the slope in the area and it would actually be the same as the higher deposits immediately south of the revetment wall. [Input: VY21CJC.j]
