Description (summary) 2001-08-15 jlw the ceramic manufacturing specialist, yt, visited the locus to look at the stratigraphy associated with the kiln, a30. She remarked that it was significantly different than others of the time and that we should study it in more detail. Looking east at what remains of the section of the west baulk of k3, it appears as if there was a deep air chamber below the main area where the pottery was placed for firing. What we thought was a second kiln and accumulation, f356 and f327 below, was most likely a previous floor of the single large kiln and the top of the heat-producing chamber. She took kiln waste samples, q696.1 to .8, to determine the type of pottery being manufactured, as well as samples of burned fuel, q696.9, most likely goat dung. In addition, there is clearly a second kiln, a31, further to the south that appears in section in the south baulk. Its bottom is at about the current level of a30. [Input: L815jlw.j]
