.bk J06 .fl S816pc.j .fd daily .ei pC .ed S816 .rd S816 .ri pC -sf Today we had a meeting with gB about what to do with J7 and J6: till today both where under the supervision of pC, but cJC was more responsable for J7. Being hQ for one week not in MZ, we have less staff in both J6 and J7. J7 needs more supervision, therefore gB decided to have cJC as unit supervisor. Now in J6 the staff members are pC, dH, eA and from today cVP. cVP was supposed to work in B7, but because of J7 gB decided that cVP will work in J6 -dy Today we worked in k87, where we dig f116 and f131. f131 was full of pottery and probably is the same as f37 in k85. At the end of the day we found a surface full of pebbles around the stone f133. We excavated also in k86 the brickfall f136: there are 14 floating stones f137. In k84 we removed the glacis f63 and we found another glacis f132. We removed 40 cm of backfill in J4k100 (k84 North) and we cleaned the east section: there is the beginning of J4f150, which is a red accumulation sloping sharply South and which is one of the reasons to belive that there is a boundary to the South (probably the wall f130). We also found the southern baulk of J4k100, which is now the North baulk of k84. we cleaned the Northern section of J4k100 which is k83 f134. k 84 dy today we removed the glacis f63, which has a very hard surface but when removed was platy in structure and reddish in color. It is the same as f107 in k74. Under f63 we found f132, which is another glacis, probably the grey one same as f110 in k85. We decided to remove part of the backfill in k84 North, which is J4k100: this was a deep sounding made in 2006 in J4: we decided to remove part of the backfill to see the limits of the sounding and to see better the East section: the first feature we see in section is J4f150, which was a red accumulation sloping sharply towards South. It is very important because we will find the same feature to the South in k84. It is also one of the reasons to belive that there is the wall f130 in k84 and it falls into the South baulk of J4k100 which is now the North baulk of k84. -mk the new markers for k84 are m4987 m4988 m4989 m4990 f 63 tc co f132 co yellowish brown c# 10YR 5/6 k 86 dy Today we removed the brickfall f124 and after two pickruns we changed feature in f136: f136 is the same as f124 but there are 14 floating stones sitting in it and the brickfall is more full of bricks. It is the same as f86 in k85. The stones are f137 and are mostly grinding stones and door soket (q218.4, q184.5) but also there were kilin waster. This was coming with the brickfall and the same kind of situation we found in k85 in f86 (stones f91 and in k75 in f82 (stones f96) f 124 tc co f136 P1 removed S816 k 87 dy Today we removed f116 and we found under it f131 which is a soft accumulation full of pottery: could be the same as f137 or f135 in k85. f 116 tc co f131 ;ds f116 covers all k87: it is a soft accumulation with lot of sherds and pebbles.

The very topmost surface flaked off. The bottom part is more fine and crumbly. The color was a dark reddish brown.
