A 20cm. cut was completed in meters H-I/68-70, extending the depth of the trench in this area from ca. 55 to 90cm. to ca.75 to 110cm.  The soil in the cut was dark brown in color and contained a large amount of small rocks, and some small chunkc of carbonized wood.  The rock pack in meters F-G/68-70 appears to taper off at a point roughly between meters G-H/68-70, gradually diminishing in concentration and changing from larger to smaller rocks.  One quarter of a box of worn impasto pottery and three quarters of a cassetta of badly weathered pieces of tile were recovered.
