General remarks | This is a pottery installation found in the sounding. It is nont at the bottom of the sounding, but it is under the area where the baulks were cut back so it is in new dirt and a good context. Numerous small pottery fragments around 3cm in size were found in it. It was pottery fragments on top of a stone base/foundation. |

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. |
