Narrative

We continued excavating locus 2 of the western quadrant. In the previously described disturbed/sunken area in the northern part of the kurgan there seems to be a construction. We uncovered two lines of stones (walls) that meet and form an angle (90deg). The one running N-S seems to have 2 course and is 6 ?stones while the E-W one so far only has 1 course and seems to run into the edge of the kurgan. The area that was described as depressed are between these walls, forming a triangular small stone covering/top that continues to the disturbed edge of the kurgan. There is also a large chalk stone in the apex on the southern part. The small stones in the apex/center of the triangle continue from the northern 50cm balk.
