Daily notes about recovery of elements 2004-07-25 jw Did preparatory cleaning in order to open this locus tomorrow. It incorporates the northern edge of the entrance to the abi and we expect it will provide important evidence about the late use of the structure. [Input: O725JW.j]
2004-07-26 dc During the removal of f124 found in Mz16, we find a considerable layer of botanical white material (f292). We dig f134 from Mz16 in west-east direction until the very last limit at A12 entrance. An expanse of small stones and some pottery appear. [Input: O726DC.j]
2004-07-26 jw began to excavate carefully accumlations f134 and f124, designated in the MZ16 season. Uncovered a patch of soil covered with deteriorated reed matting, f292, in the NW quadrant and the top of a course of bricks, f295, in the middle near the north baulk. [Input: O727JW1.j]
2004-07-27 jw Removed the layer of decayed matting, f292. Designated as new features the material exposed upon the excavation of accumulation f134 in the southern portion of the locus. Accumulation, f298, covers the SE quadrant, while stone and sherd pavement f297 covers the SW quadrant. One pickrun was made in each of these new features. [Input: O727JW2.j]

Time Sequencing

Roster Date Author Record
Notes on time sequencing 2004-07-27 jw Our intention in excavating in f297 and f298 was to see if the stones and sherds were a path up to the entrance to the abi or were material dropped by rainwater as it washed down a staircase, indication of which was implied from the containment on the N side by an E-W line of cut stone blocks (a5) discovered in previous seasons. As it turns out, the large stones constituting a5 seem to be laid on soil, although it is possible that we have not dug deep enough to see if it is really mud mortar and there is another course below. gb cautioned we should stop digging here this season, since by excavating f297 and 298 in isolation we may have interrupted the stratigraphic link between the large flat stone, f296, and the north side of the abi entrance. Resolution of the issue may still be possible by excavating the north baulk of k21, which will hopefully be accomplished next season. [Input: O727JW2.j]
