| General remarks | As is apparent by the measurements of this locus, we chunked out a large bit to make this section level with the floor of the trench. this locus is essentially a sounding level tha twe chunked out after L6005 (ash pit above it) was removed. We didn"t see any soil changes in the baulk, so we removed it entirely. |

| Has note | Contexts excavated in trenches were recorded using the "locus system." A locus is any discrete three-dimensional entity excavated in a trench. The key to the locus system is the recognition that a locus is any one thing. Differences in soil composition or texture are therefore as important as, for example, the difference between a pit and a wall. If two entities were distinct, they were considered separate loci and were therefore assigned separate locus numbers. It should also be noted that every context excavated in a trench was given a locus number and thus the trench itself is made up completely of excavated loci. |
