Area of stone packing in meters E128, S14 was cleaned and depths were recorded (90-95cm b.d.). This area maintained the designation Locus 31. No material was recovered.
A shallow cut was taken to the south of Locus 31 in the area of the yellowish-white soil designated Locus 30. This soil, combined with a thin, greenish gravel, overlays a continuation of the stone packing to the north (E128, S14). The stone packing extends south within S15 to approximately 14.30.
