Today we continued digging f35 with the big pick all the unit (q60, q62, q66). At the elevation of q60 the feature was characterized by a compact surface that, once removed with the big pick, presented a soft consistence. Finished the day by cleaning the unit and respective baulks. [Input: Q820SC.j] |

Today we continued digging f35 with the big pick all the unit (q68, q72, q73). At the elevation of q68 the feature was characterizeb by a medium compact consistence. From this q-lot on, the matrix of the soil has no changed, although the patches of soft soil were more unifomily spread within the unit; the feature was also charachetrized by the presence of few roots; in particular, at the elevation of q72 a big root has been removed (120m long, and thick aprox 5 cm). At the elevation of q73 the feature was crumble and very fine in texture, and is same of f29 in k63. So far we have not expose any stone. I am aspecting to expose one/some tomorrow, as we are reaching the same elevation of k82. Finished the day by cleaning the unit and respective baulks. The work in this unit has been a bit slow in the previous days, and therefore we are still very high in elevation. I suppose we will arrive at the same elevation as in k74, k73, k71 and k63 in two working days. [Input: Q821SC.j] |

Today we continued digging f35 with the big pick all the unit (q75, q80). The matrix of the soil is the same as yesterday, and still few big roots are present and uncovered as we dig. f35 is the same of f37 in k63, f36 in k74 and of f38 in k64. At the elevation of q75 we exposed a stone in the NW area of the unit; two other stones have been exposed at elevation of q80: one in the NW corner, the other close to the E section of the unit. At the end of the day we reached the same elevation as in k72 in all the unit. Tomorrow we still have to prepare the E and W section and then we can start removing the S baulk of the unit.

Today we did not dig in this square but only removed f82, the floating limestone close to the E section (f83, q199). dM took a particular view of the wall f84 (v57, 57a). [Input: Q903SC.j] |

Today we did not worked in this square. We only assigne a new feature number to the two floating stones (and relative pedestal) close to the N baulk of k62: f108 (close to the W section, with the pedestal being f109) and f110 (with the pedestal being f111). [Input: Q905SC.j] |

Last week we stop digging in k62. However up today we do not know whether f84 (the alligned stones running SW-NE) is a wall or a drain. Therefore during a discussion in the field with gB, fAB and J4 staff, we decided to do a sounding under one stone of f84 in order to give an answer concerning f84. We removed the 4th stone from the S: the extension of the sounding was 70cm S and 35cm E from r91 and it was located at the elevation of m4447 +120 -149 at the top and at m4447 +100 -149 at the bottom. We found that the stone is located on an amourphous accumulation which is very fine in texture, dusty and poor in pottery sherds (q259). Since we did not found anything below it, we all came to the conclusion that it is better to excavate all the area and see if it is following also NE, in k51: therfore we decided to live it for the next season, while we have not enough time to dig all the square this season. fAB also observed that f84 is a later wall: the glacis in k72 is sloping in the E side and it should continue also in k62: therefore the wall f84 it is later because it is higher than the glacis f127.
