We finished the cut that was started yesterday in meters 51S 165E. In this small cut which finished locus 5, we recovered 1/16 cassetti terrcotta but mostly plaster. We also found 7 sherds of pottery and a few fragments of bone, as well as apprx 20 frags of bronze.

After this cut was finished and the florr was swept and levelled, locus 6 was defined. Locus 6 is characteristically heavy in plaster and carbon and the soil is a medium brown.
