Hand picks and trowels were used to define the rocks in the eastern portion of Locus 2 . When clearing the soil between T-70 and 2014's T-58 in order to level out this section of the trench, a clear line formed by the stones became visible, running diagonally from the eastern corner of the large rock in the south to the northeastern corner of T-70

Special Find #1

Possibly worked bone

Locus 2

89.43E/38.75S

0.71m BD/ 26.86m AE

Handpicking, trowel scraping and one pick pass on the western perimeter of the stones has shown that they do not extend beyond the western corner of the large rock in the south and run parallel to the eastern border. Due to this, these stones may be the western returnwall which may correspond with the linear arrangements of stones both to the north in T-57 as well as T-69 to the south, and T-59 to the southeast.
