2009 Heavy Residue Archive Report (Çatalhöyük 2009 Archive Report)
Description
Backlog from 2008: At the very beginning of the study season, due to the large backlog from the previous year, teams were confronted with the difficulty of completing their analyses without the Heavy Residue. Therefore, members of the Botany, Faunal and Obsidian labs created a list of the "priority" units from 2008 that needed to be sorted for the study season as soon as possible.
As the samples from the South Area had been completed in 2008, a majority of those units came from Building 77 in the 4040 Area as this building had been excavated at the end of 2008 season. For that reason, our local ladies team of residue sorters worked part of the study season in order to sort those samples. They returned on the 9th of August and began sorting 25 other crates of backlog from 2008 from 4040 Area and TP Area respectively.
