Removed the pavement f35 and assigned f90 to the soil underneath the pavement. The matrix appears identical to f35, a gray granular bricky soil but mixed with ash, presumably from f36 that is visible underneath in section. The area was leveled, making it flat to make it easier to see bricks or structures if present. At the end of the day, gray bricks similar to f71 wall in k4, emerged but only 2 bricks.

In k4, we removed several centimeters to come towards the bricks of f99, exposing the faces from the west. Immediately, pavement f112 was found, west of f99. This pavement is under f90, forming a much nicer and more compacted surface than f35 pavement that was found in the same area but 10 cm higher in elevation. Lots of animal bones are sitting on this pavement, including a horn, mandibles, several long bones, and a skull of a smaller animal, perhaps a dog. [Input: S816LR.j] |
