Description

One bag of grass sample. Previous tag in a separate bag lists as "45-KI-8/267"(crossed out) and in renumbers artifacts as "45-KI-8/3-2/#329?". Field Catalog Form 329 lists the provenience as Unit 3-2 and describes artifacts as: "2 dung, 3 grass, 29 pieces bone." To date, only the dung and grass sample have been found. Artifacts are associated with Level Bag. NOTE: The original number for this object is unknown. We presume the object was given #329 because the Field Catalog Form says the only dung and grass from Unit 3-2 is #329. We have assigned the grass and dung samples this arbitrary catalog number. I.
