A.M.
tile - 2 dozen small pieces
pottery - 1 1/2 latte
1. Continued cut into M/69. While pockets of burn material were encountered, the soil was not entirely burned. Burn material was most abundant along northern edge, fading as one moves south. Tile finds were minimal and only small worn pieces. Pottery was abundant and mixed, predominately impasto. Cut in most places terminates below burn material in a light-brown/olive soil, with occasional leaching of dark color from burn material above. Finds in the lighter soil are minimal. Again, much bone recovered at these depths.

tile - 1/2 cassetta
pottery - 2 latte
2. Extended cut to N/69. Little burn material here. Soil is discolored though, and occassional pockets of burn material is encountered, giving soil very mottled appearance. Small frags of tile
are more abundant and potter/bone concentrations are still high. As one moves to the western part of N/69, burn material is abundant and lots of bone is coming out. In south and western edges burn is very strong, and cut ends with still more burn. Abundant pottery/burn.
tile - 3/4 cassetta
pottery - 3 1/4 latte
3. Cut extended to O/69. Unlike in O/70, we are definitely getting burn material here. Soil section in this cut world (in northern part) read a few centimeters of medium-light brown soil sitting on top of a dark-brown or burnt soil. Inclusions in both soils are the same although more cultural material is coming out of the darker soil. The burnt/dark brown soil goes deeper in southern 1/2 of O/69. Here the soil section would show a deeper stratum of of light brown soil, then a thin layer of plaster followed by burn material which is full of pottery, but little bone.
General impression is that the burn layer is at a deeper level in O/69.
