Notes on description 2003-08-24 jl It must also be pointed out that the top of a plastic bag is visible in the fissure, next to the stone wall f352. This bag was presumably washed down the fissure by the rain and flooding of the previous winter, hence we find it so far down in our excavations. It is a good modern example of the process by which we think later material was transported down the fissure, creating the mud ledge f423 and contaminating lower elevations. This is our justification for the creation of k29 and k30, as well as k31, k32 and k33. [Input: N824jl.j]

General notes on photos 2001-09-18 jl This view shows the join between the a36 north wall, f376, and the a33 stone "wing", f375. Note how the stones of f375 stick out from the wall, curving on the same axis as the stones below, and how the stones of f376 rest against them. v171a is a tight view of f352, the base of the former west wall of a33, which circles around the entire underground structure. v171b focuses on the join between f352 and f375: although there is no clear seam, it is possible that they constitute two separate phases of construction, due to the differences in size between the stones themselves and the spacing between them. v171c is a tight view of the seam between a36 and a33 at the base of f375 and f376. Notice how the horizontal rows of stones are not continous across the split, suggesting that the courses were not laid at the same time. [Input: L918jl.j]
