General remarks This locus is what ended up being the end of the pit L1046 from last year. The cobbles eventually ended up going farther to the side than the borders of the pit, so they were not placed at the bottom of the pit, instead the existence of the cobbles stopped the pit from continuing. So basically it isn"t the pit, but a cobble surface which stopped the pit from continuing at some time in the past.

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.
