Work continued in locus 11 by leveling it down with trowels to the elevation of locus 5 and 6. The soil is (light) olive brown [ 2.5 Y, (5)4/3] It contains numerous carbon inclusions, some of which are 1-1.5 cm in size and have a texture of carbonized wood.
Portion of locus 9, containing pale olive soil [ 5 Y, 6/3] that was immediately west and north of locus 11 was brought down to the same level as locus 11. One fragment of impasto was found in otherwise sterile locus 9 soil, which most likely is a result of bioturbation.
AM cont.
All other archaeological material was found in locus 11 soil. Two latte boxes of pottery and bone fragments were recovered this morning. The material included: 61 bone fragment (1 partial jaw); 16 very worn tile fragments (1-3 cm); 1 bucchero fragment; 28 coarse ware, 18 orange ware, and approximately 83 impasto fragments.
