Today we continued to dig in k82. We started by removing f75 (q231) in the S area of the square. This layer was approximately 5cm in height. Once removed we expose f77, a very compact surface already noticed two weeks ago while digging 180m N from r35 in this square. We did a general cleaning of this compact accumulation in the S area of the square (i.e. 80m N and 200m E from r35, q233); we then stop digging in this square. [Input: Q909SC.j] |

Today we started to remove the E baulk: f123 is the feature assigned to the whole baulk. The top soil layer (q261) it is compact and graysh in colour, characterized by a crumby and soft consistence and a fine texture, and by the presence of rooths, pebbles, stones (<10 cm) and a lot of pottery sherds. We decided to remove the baulk in order to understand better the connection between k82 and k72; this will allow us also to understand the connection between the glacis in k72 (f127) and k82 (f77). In the previous days we exposed the glacis in k82 (f77); aftertwards we interrupted to excavate this square untill we reached the same elevation in k72. As we found the glacis also in k72, we observed that they are at the same elevation: f77 is at m4413 +101 -143 and f127 is at m4481 +61 -129 at the top. [Input: Q911PC.J] |

Today we continued digging the E baulk f123 (q265) that is hard and crumby in consistence, characterized by the presence of pebbles, stones, pottery sherds. Digging the baulk we uncovered some floating stones: f130, f132, f134, and their pedestals f131, f133, f135. [Input: Q912PC.j] |
