Area D Trench 6 July 8, 2002
Today we started to excavate from locus 3, our aim was to find the oven is ending point; locus 2, also we wanted to find the surface of it. We have dig for 7-8 cm, and we were able to see that the oven was continuing. After this we have articulated locus 6 and we have seen that the oven pieces are collapse pieces, so we think that the pieces in locus 5 might be collapsed too.
After this we have equalized the upper step, by doing this we wanted to see edge of the oven; this took place in 13 in 13 and 6.From locus 3 we found a small metal sample while we were digging locus 3 we found a low of rocks in north south direction (starts from the side of the baulk). These are regular stones and they are placed at the west side of the oven (locus 2), so we think that is a wall. Tomorrow we will give a new locus number to it. Also we have taken 10 lt. Of soil locus 6 to make micro analysis.
Then we started to clean the oven. We were able to find that the oven has 5 parts. One of able to find that these parts that is located at the north side has many slags in. also while we were excavating this locus we had found too many slags. The mud bricks are all regular, their size is 17x6cm. We are able see that it is a very big oven. But we were not able to teach to the edge of the oven and to the surface of where it is located. We have taken many photos of the oven.
Our aim for tomorrow is to find the edge of the oven and to reach to the surface, and we will try to articulate the row of rocks.

| 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. |
