2. IDENTIFICATION

Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-08-19 vVE f548 is a natural accumulation that is covered by compacted surface f547. It is a crumbly pale brown deposit with some pebbles in it. It is very similar to the deposits that lie on top of it, but it is relatively hard. It is also remarkable that a lot more pottery sherds were found in this deposit than in the younger deposits.

2006-08-24 vVE The remains of f548 that still were in the East baulk of k107 were excavated today. A lot of pottery and two large floating boulders (f561 and f562) were found in this deposit. [Input: Q824VE.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2007-07-31 mO under f547 [Input: R731MO1.j]
2012-08-26 jW Natural accumulation covered by accumulation f547. Stratigraphically dates to post-Mittani period of unorganized occupation. [Input: W826JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-08-26 jW Ceramics have not been fully analyzed and the few items recovered are ubiquitous. [Input: W826JW.j]
Notes on time sequencing 2006-09-04 vVE f548 was covered by the naturally compacted surface of f547 and lies on top of the final deposit, f550, that covered the second apron f556. Since we have assigned s10 to f550, f548 has to be s7. Stratum s7 was defined as layers covering the terrace after its sacral function had been lost. This fits very well the description of f537.
