Tile II 1/2
Pottery I
Work continued eastward with picks and mestiline in meters EE-II, 10. Tile is still being encountered at the 40-60cm level. Also of note are the following items:
1) A number of stones were uncovered in meter FF-10 at ~55cm. These are in a line directly west of those shown on the western wall of T23-1979 Extension S. at approximately the same level. It is where these stones appear on the T23-1979 Extension S. wall that the stratigraphy breaks down, ie. the obvious layers of soil are interrupted
2) The cluster of stones in NH-9 was intermixed with tile fragments. There was also tile beneath this cluster. These stones were removed and find number six was revealed.
