Trench 4
July 29, 2002
We stated to take out the surface L4065, I have to mention that our surface was divided up into seven parts. We have found two small finds today, but we were not able to get their elevations. One is a basalt fish net weight that came out from part II, and the other one seems to be worked stone that came out from part III. Then we have excavated the L4082and L4083 at the same time; I think that I will change their locia numbers tomorrow. The reason for this is that the context is changing. For instance L4082 isn’t a dirt fill any more, especially the south west corner of the locus; here we are able to see that there are some small rocks showing up. So, tomorrow I will be articulating this locus at least fro 2- 3cm more to see if it will be wall or not.
Besides this, I have taken out a considerable amount of dirt from L4079 out (this locus is located at the east side of the trench and it is still sub topsoil), at least for 10cm, so that it will be the same level with L4065. As I have mentioned it before I am at sub topsoil in L4079, and I am sure that the context of this era will change in 15cm. On the other hand I have articulated L4083 as far as I can, because I didn’t want to destroy the laying surfaces. We have taken out three backets of dirt out, the result for this is very beautiful because a nice surface will show up. This new surface might be equal as L4065. But, L4083 will get a new locus number tomorrow.

| 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. |
