2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-08-13 vVE Feature f514 is the top soil in the NW corner of k2, north of the German trench BA. This narrow wedge of soil was removed to align the German trench B6 to the standard Mozan grid system. As a result, locus k2 has no standing Northern baulk. No pottery was collected. It covers f513. [Input: Q813VE.j]

Notes on volumetric localization 2010-08-17 mM1 the measured bottom elevation (9362) exceeds the top (9341), which is impossible. f513 is covered by f514 and has a top elevation of 9362. Therefore I conclude that the elevation of the bottom is correct,while the top one is in error, but cannot be estimated. [Input: U817MM1.j]
