It is noteceble that some of k2 features (f25,f27 and f34) are lemeted only to the eastern portion of k2, these features has reletevelly flat surfuces, meaningly they dont follow the natural slop of the locus,therefore willnot be expected in lower elevation to the west. the lemetation of the extention of these features could be a result of a sepration between the east and the west of k2 locus by a N-S wall stod high in the middle up to the elevation of features f25,f27 and f34. At the time of deposetion of tese features the suggested wall should have been still exested and could be the same wall as f1 and/or f15 f 34 ds Hard red grey accumulation lemeted to the eastern portion of k2, east and north of a5 .rd H626 .ri jo k 3 sg only the western 1/2 of locus k3 will be dug for two reassons 1st is to minimaise the the work of the dirt removing, 2nd when we get to dig the eastern portion we would have knon the stratigraphy via the western half and the section that will be created by going down in western k3 a 5 dy the SW corner of the a5 (gv) is cuting into f15 k 2 sg the A6k217 northern baulk (at the southern end of k2) will be removed earlier than what we had entended to inorder to expose the SW corner of a5, in main time will be able to expose the top of the wall f15 k 2 dy Began to excavate A6k217 northern baulk , the topsoil f2 and the wadi accumulation f3 were removed by the end of h626, in h628 will start removing f17 .rd H629 -sg Assigning and digging new feature (f45) below f41 in k3, digginig with big pick. In k2 continuing the excavation inside the burial a5, cleaning the brick fall and f36 underneath and around the bricks .rd H628 a 5 dy A small lense of ashy materials below some of the fallen bricks in the SW corner of a5. The remainder of the wall f43 of a5 was exposed after excavating the A6k217 northern baulk from top. The western half of f43 was intruding inside f15. a vessel i4 was found in the NW corner of a5 within f36 a 5 ds a5 construction is at an angle with AK building, the walls were built of 40x40x8cm bricks, the best preserved brick is the one on the SE corner of a5. only 2 or 3 layers of bricks were preserved in the build up grave construction, the bricks were stacked on top of each other (the layers of bricks are not offset from each other as it is the ussual case in building walls). The fallen bricks inside the grave are mainly pieces, only two pieces are relatevely larger thn others, these two almost complete bricks are fallen vertically they might hve fallen from the collapsed roof of a5, bothe bricks are fallen facing N-S which is the opposite direction of what would be expected in comparison to A8's MZ9 burial a 6 ds aA circled pit 120cm in dimmention 8cm deep, filled with light grey loos accumulation (f44), a plastered floor (f47) was found at the buttom of a6 a 5 dy The bricks turned not to be surounding the shaft of the grave all the way to the buttom of the grave a5, the shaft below the bricks was used as the burial chamber, where i4, i6,i7 and i8 were found one in each corner of a5. The bones were highly dis integrated, only few fragments were recoverd, it was collected along with the frageled bones as i i 7 dy The bronze bowl was removed from it's place by the end of the day to protect it from any posible damege may occure to it by leaving it to the next day for photographing the aggreget with the item in it's original place
