Area D Trench 6 July 7,2002
Our aim for today is to bring down the first step in our trench at the equal level of the second step. Because of this we have started to dig from the south part of the step, we went 2m to the north and ~20cm down. After this we kept on going to the north but this time we went part we have found many ceramics and lithics.
Before going to breakfast we have taken the elevations of this part. After the breakfast we have kept on digging from the east side of the oven (locus 2) till to locus 4which is the north baulk. At this part we were able to see some more pieces from the oven being found in area of consisting the length of 1.5m.We were able to see that the oven (locus 6) and the parts being found in locus 5 and locus 6 have the material and context. Locus 6 is a bit mixed up and it has got a few potsherds From locus 6 we have taken out loose pieces of the oven and slag and we have taken a sample of the well preserved part of it.
After we have excavated locus 3,about 7-8 cm down, so it means that it came down to the same level that is next to it (locus 4-locus 6). By digging locus 3 our aim was to see the edge of the oven (locus 2). We wanted to see where it ends, but we were not able to finished it.
Our aim for tomorrow is to excavate locus 2, locus 3 and locus 6 and find out if they have a relation in context. Then we will come down with the south part of the first step to the same level with the second step.

| 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. |
