Comment:
The site is recent fill on the eastern bank of the lake near Myaungyogyi village. The core was excavated with a bucket auger through recent fill. Once the floating island (Chum yo) was penetrated, a D section auger was used to collect the soft lake sediment, commencing approx 150 cm below present water level.
