General remarks	NW corner of trench, under where pit L5057, excavated last season, stood. Appears to have some continued ashy pit or ashy deposit material mixed with loose loam fill. However, there is extensive rodent burrowing in this portion of the trench making definitive delineations difficult.

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.
