Continued cut in E128-129, S16.  At an approx. depth of 40cm.b.d. several large stones were noted which seemes to form a line with stone formation in E128-129, S17-18.  These stones were designated locus 24.  Soil on top of stones remained consistent with description of locus 23.  From this locus a rochetto (find #1) and an upper building piping fragment (find #2) were recovered, as well as 1/4 cassetta of terracotta and 1/4 latte of ceramic and bone.  Soil among the stone was light yellow with occasional flecks of carbon.  This soil was also considered locus 24 and yielded several bronze fragments (find #3).  Feature was cleaned and defined.

Continued cleaning and defining feature.  Work in locus 23 yielded a full cassetta-bottom of terracotta and 1/2 latte of ceramic and bone.  The feature maintained designation locus 24 and yielded scattered fragments of terracotta (10-15).  The area was prepared for final drawing and photos.  Depths were taken for locus 24 and level of feature is approx. 39-44cm.b.d.
