Today began hot and muggy and became cold and rainy. We lost an hour at lunch to rain, and we ended up leaving at 3:40 because of a new shower.
In the morning, I had six workers and so five of them worked in WSDA1, shoveling and screening Locus 45 while one (Karen) helped me set out a new extension in WSDB, to 10 m on the NW side. We got almost all the way through Locus 45 before the rain came, but we will have to continue tomorrow. I also worked in Locus 26 again, trying to flatten it, and I recovered a couple more sherds of the fine red-slipped wares that I found yesterday. In WSDB, before the rain came, Karen cut the edges of the trench and then started to cut the topsoil.
After the extended lunch, we could no longer screen Locus 45 of WSDA1, so two workers remained their to trowel the baulk and prepare it for a section drawing. The rest worked in WSDB to keep taking down the wash level, where material density remains light. We uncovered a number of large rocks that appear to be fall and will likely have to be broken.
