Designation

Roster Date Author Record
Description (summary) 2010-08-11 cJC A layer of ash at the bottom of k3 that presumably extends southward. It was only recorded in section (see v37). It was not excavated so it can no be dated clearly but it appears to be the same as the ash in J6. [Input: U811CJC.j]

3. STRATIGRAPHY

Time Sequencing

Roster Date Author Record
Strata (included within phase) 2010-08-11 cJC s161JPD [Input: U811CJC.j]
Stratigraphic reasons of assignment 2010-08-11 cJC No ceramics were collected from this feature as it was only exposed, not excavated, therefore this strata is assigned based solely on stratigraphy. [Input: U811CJC.j]
Other reasons, reservations, qualifications 2010-08-11 cJC Because this ash is immediately followed by the brickfall it must have happened at nearly the same time. It is possible that the ash comes from fire or destruction that precipitated the brickfall. [Input: U811CJC.j]
