The morning began with the continued scraping of Locus 3 and 6. The removal of Locus 3 has yielded another soil, therefore Locus 7. The soil is light brown with lime inclusions. There are only traces of plaster present, probably leftover from Locus 3. We also continued to scrape Locus 6.  It was also removed to reveal a bluish gray soil, Locus 8.

Materials recovered from Locus 3 include only one piece of bone. Materials from Locus 8 include 11 pottery sherds and 2 bone fragments.

The morning continued with the removal of the remainder of W71-72/S34-35. Starting depth of W71-72/S34 was ~35cm and starting depth of W71-72/S35 was ~44cm. Both meters will be taken down to approx. ~55cm.

Afternoon continued with the removal of W72-71/S34-35. We ended at W71/S34-35 because the soil did not contain any material. Material collected from W72/S34-35 include 15 pottery pieces.

A section was begun in Locus 7 (light brown with lime inclusions) and Locus 8 (bluish-gray). This small section will help to determine what our next approach will be in CB 32.

The section was taken down from ~55cm to ~60cm. Locus 7 yielded only 2 pottery fragments and 3 pieces of bone. Traces of carbon were present in this soil. Locus 8 yielded 4 pottery sherds and 2 bone fragments.
