Narrative

Slower day today. I spent most of the morning beginning my section drawing for the N baulk of T22, but in the afternoon this was difficult to finish because the soil in the baulk had dried out and contrasts between layers were hard to make out. I’ll work quicker Monday morning to get the drawing finished and I’ll begin the section drawing of the S baulk of T27.
In T22 Vato finished L115, and cleaned the N baulk of T22 so I could draw. We also finished bringing L112 in T22 even with L111 and I’ll open a new locus in this part of the trench on Monday (as what is beneath L111 and L112 combined). This will be the focus of excavation next week-- so we can finish this trench.
In T27 we’ve moved down slope and are only excavating in L61 and L62-- which are the most downslope loci in the trench, and both border the E baulk. A line of stones is emerging across both loci, and I believe this is another terracing wall. We’ll also spend time excavating in these loci next week. The other upslope loci that are still open in T27 (L06, L07, L09, L10 and L11) will be closed on Monday since excavation in these loci will probably provide new information-- at least this season.
