Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-08-12 vVE Feature f500 is a slightly reddish light gray clay deposit that seems to be a continuation of the last deposits excavated in this locus duuring MZ17. It is a natural accumulation. This means that the stones of f502, f503, f504, f505, f506, f507, f508, f509, f510, f511 are resting on and embedded in this (combined) f500. These features embedded in f500 are aggregate a500. [Input: Q812VE2.j]
2007-08-07 ei Natural accumulation in k1. The stones that are embedded in the deposit of f500 were probably deposited when most of the second apron, f532,was covered by deposits. It seems to be continued by f565. [Input: R807EI1.j]

Daily notes about recovery of elements 2006-08-13 vVE Feature f500 was excavated today only in the eastern half of k1. It was still the same slighly reddish light gray deposit. f511, f504, f505 and f506 seem to be floating now. Two q-items were found here, q501.1 and q501.2 [Input: Q813VE.j]
2006-08-14 vVE Only the Western half of f500 was excavated. In some places a slightly harder layer was encountered but very fragmentary and underneath the same deposit continued. [Input: Q814VE.j]
2006-08-15 vVE Feature f500 was further excavated with the big pick. We closed the feature when we encountered a natural hard surface f534 that had the tops of several large boulders sticking out through it: f525, f526, f527 and f528. [Input: Q815VE.j]
2006-08-21 vVE Today more of the natural deposit f500 was excavated when we removed the northern baulk of k1. During the excavation of f500 we partially uncovered the large boulders f529 and f530. [Input: Q821VE.j]
