-dy We worked in three loci today: k100, k13, and k3.

-eq We installed another elevator and placed it so that it sits in k15.

-sf vVE helped the workmen to instal the elevator and hurt his finger in the process. We worked at the house for the remainder of the day.
 
k 3
dy We had discovered laminations (f141) approximately in the middle of the loci the day before and excavated some of those laminations. Some of them, however, still remained today. We had also differentiated the material north of the laminations as f145. This feature did not contain laminations, but is similar to the material above them and what we have generally been finding in this loci. We decided to remove 10cm of this feature with a big pick (q381) in order to examine the border of the two features and see whether the laminations would still continue. The border of the two features indicated that the laminations only continued for a layer or two. Since we did not see it necessary to keep following the laminations and because our goal in this loci is to reach the steps of the 1st apron (f131) below, we decided to remove the remaining of the laminations (q383). Once the laminations had been examined the SE corner of the unit that we had defined as f143 because it contained charcoal and more pottery than the laminations (f141) abutting in the north. f143 was also much softer than the lamination (f141) layer. We had originally thought that that this feature could be pit, but after excavating it (q385), we determined that it was not a pit, but just another type of accumulation. After removing the laminations and determining that the feature in the corner was not a pit, we removed a circa 50 cm stretch of soil (q386) in order to expose another step of the apron (f131).

k 100
dy We collapsed a part of the upper part of the western section of the loci just south of the SE corner of k5.

k 13
dy We continued going down in k13, but just with one q lot (q382).
