General remarks This locus is at the north eastern part of L4070. This area is the part where the big grinding stone was laying, part of it was cut by the sounding that we have opened in L4070 (a part of it was at the west side of the locus it might because of being at the slope)

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.
