Narrative

6.28.06 While the other side of the hill had an amazing day (cylinder seal), in Ts 19 and 16, life was a little less exciting. In T19, Razmik found some very large LB sherds (and tried to piece them together, rather than move more dirt, but hey). The trench is coming along, and maybe maybe maybe has a wall about 2/3 of the way to the eastern side. In T16, we prepped the ground in Locus 114 for a photo of the strange arm of smaller rocks and brick. During this process, we found a bunch more brick chunks, including some on the north side, where the soil became very dark and clay-ey. No clue what it means. After the photo, we removed the arm and found no significant change in the soil. Dug another 20 cm down with shovels, and only found a small area with lighter sandy soil near Locus 110 (EB?). Still no floor! Also dug a little in Locus 113, but only found more mottled soil, some charcoal (already well sampled), and pockets of clay.
