potentes paquetes estratigráficos

Ceramics in the Alhambra
An article on an excavation of the Alhambra.
I understand 'potente' here to mean something like large, and 'paquetes estratigráficos' to mean 'stratigraphic units', so does a translation along the lines of 'large stratigraphic units' work here?
Como resultado, la excavación de los ***potentes paquetes estratigráficos*** de este periodo identificados en el Sondeo 1 apareció gran cantidad de material rodado y de una cronología muy heterogénea.
'Potentes' is also used in the following sentence and I don't quite understand its meaning there either:
Tras retirar las ***potentes*** capas de relleno vertidas en época reciente e identificar las principales fábricas de la restauración llevada a cabo en los años setenta, comenzamos a identificar los niveles arqueológicos que presentaban un mayor interés.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

strong stratigraphic sequences
La estratigrafía permite datar objetos encontrados en secuencias de deposición. Los objetos más recientes se encuentran en los estratos superiores de la secuencia.
Los más viejos en los estratos inferiores.

powerful strategic compartments
The information describes:
As a result of the excavation of the powerful stratigraphic compartments, identified from a time period of an initial Probe 1, there lies the discovery of a large amount of filmed material from a very heterogenous chronology (a time scale composed of very diverse elements).
After removing some powerful land-filled areas from a recent epoch (time period in history) and after the identification of the main units of restoration carried out in the 1970s, we can identify the most interesting arqueology.
