| General remarks | Topsoil in the southern 1.80m of the trench and subtopsoil in the center 1.20m of the trench. Supposed to be only topsoil in southern half of trench but the workmen became confused and cut three, instead of 2, steps. |

| 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. |
