Work began with more scraping with trowels and defining stumps.  The SW corner of Locus 6 is the lowest, so the rest of the locus is being lowered carefully to that level.  Parts of the locus by the west baulk are still damp from yesterday’s rain; these will be left alone until dry.  While scraping, a tooth was found.

After drawing, the tooth was lost.  While leveling, teeth were found with a small fragment of jawbone preserved.

Work continued slowly scraping the locus and further defining the large stump.  Due to a sudden rainstorm, the trench was tarped and work ended.  Opening elevations and material counts will be taken in the morning tomorrow.  Approximately two hours of work were lost.
