Opening elevations were taken.
NW (0 N/S, 80 W), 29.80m AE
NE (0 N/S, 75 W), 29.72m AE
SE (5 S, 75 W), 29.98m AE
SW (5 S, 80 W), 30.05m AE
The soil along the southern most boundary of the trench is beginning to look a little yellow in color. We are conducting a pick pass throughout the rest of the trench to reach said color.
A pick pass was made beginning in the northern most meter of the trench.
Baulk walls are being made level. All pottery, terracotta, bone, etc. found within the baulk tri is being collected under a new context.
To further investigate the depth of this yellowish soil that is appearing in the southern region of the trench, we are creating a 1 x 5 meter sounding along the western boundary of the trench. This sounding will become a new locus.

A pick pass was made through locus 3 from the southern boundary to the northern boundary.
While digging through locus 3, we have come across pockets of galestra and will be opening up a new locus.
Locus 3 closing/ locus 4 opening elevations were taken.

Locus 4
Opening elevations and pictures were captured for locus 4.
NW (0 N/S, 80 W), 29.67m AE
NE2 (0 N/S, 79 W), 29.67m AE
SE2 (5 S, 79 W), 29.94m AE
SW (5 S, 80 W), 29.94m AE
Locus 4 is a grey-yellow, dry, rocky material with little-to-no organic material.
By digging through the galestra material, we hope to prove/ disprove any possible indications of re-deposition.
End of day closing elevations:

*The remaining area of the trench not associated with the sounding, will be referred to locus 5. Opening photos of locus 5 were taken.
