Locus type: Earth
Designation: Beaten-earth surface under Wall 4
Locus type: Earth
Designation: Beaten-earth surface under Wall 4
Start date:
14 Jul, 1987
End date: 22 Jul, 1987
End date: 22 Jul, 1987
Rationale
Reason: To account for firm earth under Wall 4
Top separation: Arbitrary / Bottom separation: Arbitrary
Interpretation:
Function: May wll be an exposure surface or just packed wind blown colluvium
Stratigraphy remarks: Over Pit 16 & under Wall 4; so later than 16 & earlier than 4; contamination from bioturbation
