Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2006-08-20 vVE Feature f552 was opened as an expanded version of f542 after f542 was excavated to the same level as the bottom of f541. Feature f541 lies on top of f552. Feature f552 seems to be the same type of deposit as f542 although perhaps a little less hard and maybe a little bit more crumbly. At the position where the division between f541 and f542 had been there still seems to remain a much harder area. It is unclear what this could be exactly. [Input: Q820VE.j]

Daily notes about recovery of elements 2006-08-20 vVE Feature f552 was opened as a continuation of f542 after f542 was excavated to the same level as the bottom of f541. Feature f541 lies on top of f552. [Input: Q820VE.j]
2006-08-28 vVE Today we started to excavate f552 again in order to uncover the face of the revetment wall. [Input: Q828VE1.j]
2006-08-30 vVE f552 was excavated today in the Southern half of k106 which had not been excavated yet. It is a compact layer of light brownish red clay. [Input: Q830VE1.j]

Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2007-07-31 mO 12A f553 cover lower steps of apron [Input: R731MO1.j]
2012-08-26 jW Natural late Mittani accumulation covered by accumulation f542. [Input: W826JW.j]
Typological reasons for assignment 2012-08-26 jW Pottery and bones were found within this feature, although the ceramics have not been analyzed. A chisel-like bronze item was also recovered. [Input: W826JW.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2012-08-26 jW It has the same top elevation as floor f568, The bronze tool may indicate active use of the area during this period. [Input: W826JW.j]
Notes on time sequencing 2006-09-04 vVE The accumulations of f552 and f553 start to cover the lower steps of the second apron. The apron remains visible, however. These deposits must then have accumulated at (the end) of the use of the second apron, i.e. s11, perhaps s11b. [Input: Q904VVE.j]
