8.14.06 It was quiet at Tsaghkahovit without Elizabeth today. Energies were focused on WSC3 and WSI. In the former, I created a new locus, locus 7, to mark the southwest half of the trench. My intention was to bring this area of the room down to the level of the bottom of locus 5 and locus 6. The matrix of locus 7 is mostly a medium brown silt wash, but it gradually becomes more clayish alongside the southeast wall. In WSI, I created a new locus, locus 20, which is an L-shaped locus that hugs the southwest and northwest walls. The matrix of locus 20 is a medium brown silt that gradually becomes more clayish as it moves from the interior of the room towards the walls. Against the southwest wall, the matrix is almost entirely the orange/white clay, but it is very difficult to demarcate the transition. Just again the southwest wall, in the middle, I encountered an area of burnt earth with at least one large piece of charcoal within it. Also encountered within this locus was a nearly whole pot, locus 21, in situ just above the floor. Finally and perhaps most excitingly, today we excavated the first flagstone floor of the season in this locus. The stone floor is not quite as noce as the floors in M and C were, but it's too soon to judge, since it probably continues to the west and to the east. Didn't finish defining the limits of the floor today. The in situ pot is located just to the southwest of this stone floor. I think part of the rim is missing, but we'll see for sure after cleaning.
