Place: Ar/Ge.T19.509

The soil in L509 is quite mottled, ranging from yellow, yellow-brown, brown, to brown-black, but is generally loose and moderately granular. We found a small polishing stone in L509 (Ar/Ge.T19.509.L.01). In the southern half of L509, there is a black stain, near some disintegrated, red fired clay. The area may be a pit, but it is very irregular in shape and is now L510. . Further down in L509, we came down on a horseshoe of burned clay with dark black soil in the center (L511), which is a hearth feature. In the NW corner of L509, another large ceramic sherd was found at 2282.60 m. A fragment of groundstone was found in the locus (Ar/Ge.T19.509.L.02).
