Daily Log

Thursday, July 19, 1973

Work continued in Agger 10.  In the morning three workmen continued clearing off the top of the Agger, excavating the yellowish soil stratum (designated "A") in grids G-J 1-6.  This stratum contains a heavy concentration of rocks of various sizes and many tile fragments.  Two other workers excavated the topsoil stratum in grids G-H 4-8; here there are many medium-sized rocks and a few scattered, heavily worn tiles.

On the afternoon excavation continued at the top of the Agger, removing the heavy rocks and yellowish soil in grids G-J [blank]-3.  This stratum contains tile and pithos fragments and some scattered, mostly coarse, pottery.  Here there are conciderably few sima and frieze placque fragments compared to the area excavated previously - but more pithos and cover-tile fragments.

6 cassetti of tiles - discarded

1/2 cassetta - coarse ware
