Descriptive Attribute Value(s)
Location Inside the northernmost room of the trench, underneath Locus 36.
Description This locus is of a Munsell10 YR 5/4. Like Locus 36, it is also made up of washed down fill. Nevertheless, this particular fill contains more pottery than Locus 36. Locus 38 extended all the way down to the bedrock. Nevertheless, the difference between the top of the locus and the bottom—where it covers the bedrock floor—was not noticeable. This means that there was little if nothing on top of the Locus 42 floor before it was covered with this fluvial deposit.
Top (m) Opening Levels: 906.490 m.
Overlies Locus 42, bedrock floor.
Definition Room B Washed down fill underneath Locus 36
Combined with None.
Underlies Locus 36.
Bottom (m) Closing Levels: 905.580 m.
