Area D Trench 4
July 20, 2002
Today we hurried to clean and sweep the trench, because we needed to have spider shots. Till breakfast we were done with the spider shots. We started from the southwest quarter of the trench and we were done with the northwest corner (we have six shots in total). L4065, 4067, 4069, 4071, 4073, 4076, 4077 and 4078are in seen. Besides these locia, we are able to see the old pit (L4048) and the sounding D3 in the shots.
After breakfast we have shot the points with the total station. The next thing after shoting the points with the total station, we have set up our tent and then I have decided to divide L4065 into equal 1m parts. On this locus I have 7 parts right now that I have mentioned them with Roman numerals. The "I" part is 0.70cm, that is because of the sounding D3’s south baulk was there. By the way there is only 7 to 8cm left to be at the same level with the sounding D3. But, the level changes on the west side of the trench and the sounding D3 (the reason for this is being located on the slope of the Tepe). I have started to excavate L4065from the north of the locus, as mentioned before I have given Roman numerals to each part and the area that is 0.70cm is part "I".
My aim for tomorrow is to get soil samples from each seven parts for micro- analysis, actually I have taken a soil sample from part "I", so I will only take samples from the rest six parts.

| 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. |
