General remarks | The soil in the small trench changed color t a lighter shade locus # was changed. We are going fast to get to the cobbles and perhaps the wall L 6 and L 2. White pebbles began appearing |

Strat remarks | A lighter color signature can be observed in the baulk after a large overburden area. |

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. |
