Daily Trench Journal

Area D

Trench 4

June 25, 2007

 

I had Nacet going down in the L4114 fill next to the organic fill slump L4117. It paid off and we found the wall L4119 running pretty much parallel to L4116. This narrow space was filled with grain and organic material that we can see in the baulk slopes down from West to East. On the west side, we caught the organic material slump, but on the east side of 4114, we were not able to see it and went down to far. It was visible in the baulk however, and you could clearly see organic material, seeds and collapse on either side of wall L4119. It was impossible to distinguish the wall earlier do to the ashy collapse.

We spent the afternoon bringing down the baulk and later separated it into two loci: 4121 and 4122. 4121 was characterized by more collapse like material – burnt mud brick and ashy fill. I think that we are just starting to hit the top of the collapse here. 4122 was just giving us normal fill.

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.
