07/10/06.Burial 1: We continued excavating locus 7/the chamber. The same matrix pattern has basically continued. There was one small piece of unidentified bone in the north eastern corner. I have also found several pieces of tiny charcoal mixed in, mostly on the east side. It is also very wet and falls apart and is somewhat greasy when I check to see that it was charcoal... it is somewhat difficult to distinguish from black decaying rock. It seems to me that this matrix may continue under the huge freaking rock to the east. Burial 2: We finished breaking the last bit of stone. I took elevations for locus 4 and we started clearing it off with shovels and trowels. There is a rather large, long stone on the western side.Burial 3: continued cleaning with shovels and then trowels.I got an additional worker today, so now I have 6.
