Wh. Sl. II

Tr. 12 Pit, starts in C (1), at 9% (Wh. Sl. I 21%), in C(2) 14% (Wh. Sl. II 11%), in C(2) D (1) 25% (Wh. Sl. I 0.2%).

Sjöqvist, starts LC I B at 4% (Wh. Sl. I 6%). In LC II A 12% (Wh. Sl. I 1%)

Thus Sjöqvist LC I B = Pit C (1) (Pit perhaps slightly earlier, as higher percentage of Wh. Sl. I - Wh. Sl. II: Wh Pit W. S. II/W. S. I = 3/4/7; Sj. W. S. II/W. S. I = 4/6 9/21 14/21

LC II A = Pit D (1) Pit W. S. II/W. S. I = 125/1 Sj. W. S. II/W. S. I = 12/1 (Sjö pit perhaps later than Sj.'s transition from LC I B to LC II A in C(2); D (1) a later phase of LC II A. Peak of BR in pit D (2) recalls Sjöqvist peak in LC II A)

Tr. 21: 12 + 17 starts B (1) at 28% (Wh. Sl. I 4%) Wh. Sl. II/Wh. Sl. I = ± 7/1 Thus later than Pit C(2), earlier than Peak at B (3) at 46% (no W. S. I) Pit D (1) + Sj. LC II A

Drops to 13% at C (1) - Bowl is 7% W. S. II/Bowl 26/14

Sjöqvist LC II C Wh. Sl. 3%, Bowl 2% W. S. II/Bowl 21/14 Thus C(1) appears earlier than bulk of Sj. L. C. II C; it would appear even more so if Sj. distinguished Bowl from HIII

Sjöqvist - Peak in LC I B (BR II peak LC II A)
