-dy Today we started working in k34 by removing the rest of the top soil layer f176, under which we uncovered a natural accumulation layer f181 that we removed, but not completely. We will continue the removal tomorrow. As for k25 we removed f175 in order to expose the bricks, then we continued scraping in that area to understand the situation better. We seem to have a line of bricks running north south against which we have vertical bricks, While on the western part of the square there is soft material that looks like a pit fill. we have not assigned any feature numbers to those structures, we will wait to understand the situation better. while in k23 we only removed the wall f168. As for k24 we removed the wall f171 and the accumulation layer f182 that was under it and on top of the pavement f165 that continued under this wall f171. After that we proceeded by removing the stone installation f164 under which we found the same accumulation f182. But, as for the pavement f165, it continued partially under the stone installation and then it stopped. Our next move was to remove the pavement f165 under the wall f171 and f164. By doing this we exposed the rest of the floor surface f179 but since the continuation of this floor is in k24 and not k23, we assigned a new feature number for it, f183 and then removed this feature in k24 after redefining the baulk between the two squares. Under this floor we uncovered the rest of f163 that we started to remove but we will not have the time to finish the removal today, so we will proceed tomorrow.

k 34
dy We started working in this locus by continuing the removal of the top soil layer f176. Underneath it we uncovered a natural accumulation layer f181 that we started to remove but we did not finish.

k 25
dy Today we removed f175 to try and expose the bricks better. It seems that we have in the eastern part of the square a line of bricks against which there are vertical bricks. While in the south western part of the locus, next to the bricks, we have what seems to be the fill of a pit. We have not assigned any feature numbers to these components yet, we will wait to understand the situation better.

k 23
dy Today in this locus we only removed the wall f168.

k 24
dy Today we removed the wall f171 under which we found an accumulation f182, that lays on top of the pavement f165, that continued under wall f171 and partially under the stone installation f164. We also removed f164 to find underneath the same accumulation layer f182 that we found under f171. As for the continuation of the pavement f165, we removed it exposing the floor surface under it f183 which is the same as f179, but only in a different square k24, there for we gave it a new number and then removed it. Doing this we uncovered the remaining part of f163 that we started removing but did not finish yet.
