Daily Trench Journal

Area D

Trench 4

June 13, 2007

 

Upon leveling and cleaning the trench today, we uncovered what appears to be a wall (L4108). The wall seems to have slump on both sides, so we are currently going down in the surrounding loci and trying to articulate the features. Another possible wall is emerging running north to south in the southeast corner of the trench almost parallel with the bulk. I am also thinking that these features might somehow be related to the platform in D8 that currently is about 12cm below where we are.

Further excavation actually determined L4108 not to be a wall at all, but rather part of a collapsed wall that spans 4106, 4107, and 4108. This collapse appears to be from the wall I previously mentioned running along the bulk. We spent the rest of the day trying to articulate the rest of this collapse.

L4104 continues to be dry and reveal very little.

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.
