| Remarks | ***Rest of locus needs to be read. *** One sherd, a complete profile of a local triangular shape bowl with a string cut base that looks a little similar to a BRB, was pulled for drawing in advance of the locus being read. 6-10-05 Read the rest of the locus. This has to be a mixed locus, because there are classic Chalco shapes and classic Ubaid pots together. Only reason for my reading is because this locus captures some painted varieties we rarely see in the Ubaid (quite fine and bichrome) and this captures some variation in the Ubaid corpus. For other purposes, this locus is not a good one. |
| Has note | Finds Bags, or KT bags, are groups of artifacts of the same material composition excavated from a locus. Each finds bag may contain a number of finds but finds are always separated by material. Thus, ceramics, bones and lithics excavated from the same locus were given separate numbers and were collected in separate bags. A special category is the "small find," which could be of any material. Small finds are generally speaking rare or exceptional finds such as figurines, loom weights, andirons or worked bone tools. Small finds are given separate numbers and are bagged separately. Finds bags could consist of only one plastic bag of material and could only be excavated on a single day. |
