Area D Trench 10

June19, 2005

Sibel Torpil

Our first aim for today is to find out if L16 goes along with L23 to find out if L16 goes along with L23, and to find out the connections and the relationship we have to reveal L16. In addition to this we are also aiming to bring L9 to the same level of the wall which is extended in the next trench D8 (located to the north of D10).

After removing the surface of L16 it became visible to observe that the rocks of L3 seem to be going on, they are on the same level with the rock wall but they are not a part of a wall; but it is a surface. In other words the context of the L16 changed now it is labeled as 24.

On the other hand we articulated L9 and L15 and after taking some photos, we decided to take off the walls L9 and L15. After this process we have traced and articulated the trench down to the same level of the neighbour trench D8.

We were almost at the same level of trench D8, and for this reason we were scraping L25 when we faced that an ashy pit started to came up (the locus number is 26). L26 act to be round in shape but while we were tracing and articulating it the entire exterior edge of the pit changed. The soil was very loose and soft that the entire soil got just apart and the shape turned out to be square. There was no time left today to explore the square shape, so the first thing for tomorrow is to reveal what the shape is going to yield us, but at least we were able to take the level.

Has note The purpose of the daily journal was to record the activities taking place in a trench each day. This included which loci were excavated, how and why loci were excavated and the ongoing impressions of the relationships among loci. It should be noted that journals record the actions, impressions and ideas of trench supervisors during the excavations. They are not, therefore, the final interpretations or syntheses of the emerging data.
