-dy 1 pick and 1 in support for the work today

k 5
dy continued to clean the locus in preparation for final photographs and for cover/backfill until excavation resumes next season. Leveled accumulation, f340 and cut straight E-W baulks.

-sy re-measured markers m5525 to m5529. okk stated that she was confident that m5523 and m5524 had been properly measured from good control points. Their measured separation distance was within one cm of the calculated value. Recalculated, plotted, and cross-checked among the markers. In all but one pair, the calculated and measured distances agreed to within 3 cm. However, pair m5525 and m5526 disagreed by 7 cm, although they were acceptable when paired with other markers. We can only conclude that the coordinates of each of the pair are within acceptable limits and that in this particular case the errors all happened to compound in the same direction.

-sg tomorrow we will finish the cleanup and will begin to excavate the fill, f365, of a pit in the far NE corner of A15k1. This pit cut the stones of the plaza.
