Daily Trench Journal
Area C
Trench 1
16 June 2005
We are coming down on all sides of the mud brick walls (L1110 in the east and 1111 in the west). The walls continue down now to the standing height of 20cm/
There seems to have been some sort of mud brick collapse or flat feature between the two walls (in L1113 fill). Some bricks were flat lying, complete and straight on the ground just above the level of L1109 white plastered surface. There is a larger area of mud brick not so neat, at the northern section of L1110. The area will be called L1115 and may represent slump or collapse of the wall. This will be removed on Saturday, June 18.
The soil in L1114 to the east of L1110 is very hard and compact. Bricky in places. Again more slump?
On the southwestern side of L1111 wall a semicircle of cobbles and pottery fragments are showing up. Could the wall cut this as a pit? Or was the semicircle of stones built up to the wall?

| 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. |
