Daily Log

July 13, 1981

Cut 5 in alpha-beta is continued to the south.  the cut is complete, in dense yellowish soil with little pottery and no tiles.

We next removed a section of the protective baulk left along the E-W wall in the SE corner of the trench - a segment 1.10 in length was taken out in order to continue the E baulk up to the wall for a profile drawing, and to clarify the relationship between the E-W wall and the N-S "wall" running perpendicular to it.  At the south end of the N-S "wall," a large pan tile frag. is build in among the stones.  The N-S "wall" continues below the E-W wall, at a depth of c. 45 cm. below the upper surface of the large e-W wall.  Below the stones of the E-W wall is a layer of brown soil, underneath which is found the dense yellow soil surrounding the N-S "WALL."  Tile fragments occurred in the baulk around the intersection of the 2 walls. Along the E baulk, the zone of rocky fill in gray brown soil ends abruptly in a vertical line 37 cm. to the north of the

E-W wall - adjacent to the wall is dense brown soil which may represent the foundation trench for the wall.

The baulk dividing the 2 trenches is removed in delta-zeta 20, leaving only the eastern half standing - dark brown topsoil with stones and tilesn occurs here.

Work proceeds in beta 22, following a heavy black burn layer - some large pan tiles on the east side of beta 22 lie on top of this heavy burned area - there is large amount of fineware pottery, (much bone) and several bronze fragments.  To the west in beta 21 several large rocks are uncovered.  The burned layer is locate c. 1 m. - 1.20 m. below the surface.  In epsilon-delta 22 we are still in reddish soil with much tile and plaster and quantities of pottery, especially of orange-ware bowls.
