Daily notes about recovery of elements 2001-06-12 lR k4 was opened today with the first 20cm excavated as topsoil. [Input: L630TR.j]
2001-06-25 lR A possible drain has been identified running alongside the wall f52 on the North side. We defined the bricks, which are a pinkish color and found on the south side a little niche where there are no bricks. We are presuming that this niche is an outlet area for the drain to pass through the wall. On the other side we also defined the bricks but they end about one meter from the East baulk. It is possible that the bricks collapsed and caused a jumble on the North side. [Input: L630TR.j]
2001-06-26 lR We have shifted more workmen to excavate in this area since it is the highest in elevation [Input: L630TR.j]
2001-07-02 tR We began to expose what appears to be a small retaining wall of sorts, which we called f80 in k4. [Input: L630TR.j]
2001-07-03 tR In k4 we have an accumulation, which is f81 that gb suggested may have been cut due to erosion after a period of abandonment before the brickfall. Our strategy is to go down in k105 and cut a section so we will be able to better understand the deposition. We have tentatively named k3 and k4 as k106, but we will consult with gb or fab before making it final. [Input: L630TR.j]
2001-07-08 lR Castro and I started drawing the North section today [Input: L708LR.j]
