Trench D6 Daily Journal July 18, 2002
We continued to clear furnace chambers 24-28 and the debri in L29 and L6. We gave each region of excavation a separate KT (by area and elevation) and saved all soil and debri for sampling and analysis. Our method was to remove "floating" mudbricks, and then clear the loose fill around the remaining material/structure. We also removed debri from locus 26 and 27 (center and 4th chambers of L20).
We also removed ~6cm (2cm at first, 4 cm later) from L11, discovering a little slag (KT 13) and a chunk of carbon (KT15). In the South West corner of this locus (near L18) we discovered some large chunks of pottery. We did not notice any evidence of mud bricks.
We also found group of medium sized stones in the South East, near L20. we then cleaned carefully and took photos.

| 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. |
