Narrative

In SLT1, finished locus 56 topsoil in western expansion and into locus 57. As we come down on architecture, inside the wall will be locus 62 and outside will be 63. Bottom of locus 62 is quite cobbly near the floor, but not consolidated into a feature. Further east, we're breaking out the 2 largest stones in this half of the trench. Hasmik is coming to start drawing out trench tomorrow, so we're cleannig the walls and stone floors in the north half. In SLT3, taking down locus 14 beginning in SE corner to see how far down bedrock (fairly deep to my chagrin). Below locus 14 in our probe is a thick clay layer that will be locus 15. Digging along the eastern length of trench first and will bring back locus 14 from there. Locus 14 certainly a floor with mottled clay and gravelly surface, but no features on it. Recovered radiocarbon from locus 14 at far east end near locus 15 surface at 332cm below datum.
