Datum: 587.95 (located to the NW of D.5)

Trench: D.5

Date: May 21, 2005 (May 20th was the day off)

Today, work has continued in L.5206 and L.5207. A ground stone (KT# 15) appearing in L.5206 does not look in horizontal position but it may indicate domestic activity, if not thrown away.

In L.5207, we may have an area with plaster surface, although I did not open it yet. In my opinion, we are excavating a dumping area in this locus that was filled mostly with mud-brick pieces and small number of artifacts. In addition, there is a small area with the mixture of gravels and coarse sand.

Work in L.5209 showed that there is significantly small number of artifact recovery and the soil consist of very clean mud as fine clay. The gravels in this locus are not laid horizontal implying the lack of a surface.

Overall, work in the trench was slow due to small number of workers and setting up the tent over the trench.

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.
