Daily notes about recovery of elements 2006-08-15 vVE After excavating f500 we found a natural hard surface in k1. It was at its hardest where it came from the Northern baulk. It was lying against f509, f520, f529 and f530 and seemed to sligthly descend southwards. It was only partially preserved because as it extended southwards it became softer and less compact. In the southeastern corner of k1, just northwest of f502, a smooth area of laminations was found: most likely is this the location of a small depression where rain water would have gathered. In some places the compacted surface had also been damaged by the big pick. [Input: Q815VE.j]
2006-08-27 vVE The continuation of f534 in the North baulk of k1 was found today after removing f566. On top of where the revetment wall should be there appeared a this continuation f534. Immediately north of this there had appeared more large boulders and the deposit underneath f566 there was soft, crumbly, reddish dark brown clay containing many very small pebbles and a little bit of calcite: this seems to be washed down baqaya. [Input: Q827VE.j]
2006-08-28 vVE f534 had not yet been excavated in the Southern half of k1, but was removed there too today. [Input: Q828VE1.j]

Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2012-08-26 jW This feature lies south of apron f532. It covers the stones of both the EDIII wall, f569 and the large boulders, f591 placed above it in the late Mittani period. [Input: W826JW.j]
Notes on time sequencing 2006-09-04 vVE The naturally compacted floor of f534 with the large boulders f525, f526, f527, f528, f519, f567 and f574 abutted the base of f532. f532 is assigned to s12c and because the stones indicate some kind of neglect/decay I will assign these features to s12a which was defined as a possible abandonment stratum.
