-dy Since yesterday morning dM took the overview pictures of J3 so that we could now remove some of the stones in k1 that must have eroded out of place from the second apron or the temple terrace. f503, f504, f505, f506, f507, f508 and f511 were removed. In k1, but extending into k2, the natural accumulation f565 was excavated until the natural floor surface f566 was reached. In k107 the natural deposit f550/f553 was excavated and another step of the second apron f556 was uncovered.

dy Yesterday dM had taken the overview pictures of the situation where the lower steps of the second apron f532 and f556 had been covered by accumulations and several large boulders of the second apron had moved from their original position. With those pictures taken we were now able to remove several of those dislocated boulders that make up a500. Before the removal of f503, f504, f505, f506, f507, f508 and f511, the Area designation (J3) and their respective feature numbers were written on the boulders with a permanent marker. While removing the deposits on which these boulders had been resting a new dislocated boulder f567 was uncovered. We started to removing the natural accumulation f565 that covered the lower part of the second apron f532. In this deposit we found bronze item i500 stuck between several boulders. After excavating f565 we reached a naturally compacted surface f566 which we also started to excavate.

ds f567 is a large boulder whose top protrudes slightly above the naturally compacted surface f534. 

f 565 
dy Today the bronze item i500, possibly a bronze spoon, was found while excavating f565. 
ds Feature, f565, is a slightly reddish light brown deposit that covers the lower part of the second apron f532. As more boulders appeared this deposit quickly receded southwards. It was lying on top of the naturally compacted floor f566.
