Daily Journal

Area C

Trench 5

July 14, 2002

We started excavating locus 3 today. The soil has become siltier than locus 2. We started noticing some mudbrick debris, so Taraw made the floor level and we noticed a mudbrick in the east baulk (about 14cm x 17cm). He used a trowel and excavated another few centimeters, whereby we found two rows of mudbrick walls that meet perpendicularly in the middle of the sounding. One wall is north/south and the other runs east/west. I named the locus number 4.

I also found quite a few animal burrows mixed into L3 and this new locus L4.

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.
