Area D Trench 4
July 15, 2002
The day started by taking the elevations for the day before, because on the 13th of July I was not able to shoot my levels. Then I have decided to open three soundings; two of them are in L4070 and one of them is in L4066. My aim was to find out if the rocks in both locia had a continuation or not. From L4070’s sounding being located at the south of the locus I was able to see that a new floor will be showing up in the few coming days, and also I was able to see the new coming floor from the south sounding of this locus. All three soundings have been excavated for 10 to 12 cm down.
After all these I have decided to pick up the potsherds from L4071, because they were very loose and I didn’t want them to be damaged, and then I have articulated the rocks in this locus. It became much clear that they are only collapse rocks in spite of being a wall. But, the front row that faces the sounding D3, they seem to be placed regularly rocks that reminds me to a wall, we will see it after a second articulation.
After all these I have decided to cover L4065 with dirt, because I don’t want the surface to be destroyed and being packed while we will be working on the other locia in the trench. I am trying to protect the surface, because I want to know if the surface goes under the big rocks or not. After all these I began to remove the big rocks (4070), and I was able to face a new surface, I think that it will be much clear tomorrow.

| Has note | The purpose of the daily journal was to record the activities taking place in a trench each day. This included which loci were excavated, how and why loci were excavated and the ongoing impressions of the relationships among loci. It should be noted that journals record the actions, impressions and ideas of trench supervisors during the excavations. They are not, therefore, the final interpretations or syntheses of the emerging data. |
