| General remarks | Area of fill immedietely abutting L5045 on the outside (though actually turned out to be on the inside of the house in the areas W of the wall) and in northern areas coming down to what is equivalent to the surface on the outside of the wall. Went through sealing ash layer and had a couple areas of harder soil, probably melted or collapsed mudbrick from the wall. "Surface" level had three fishnet weights stacked on it--KT 5468 5469 and 5470. |

| Has note | Contexts excavated in trenches were recorded using the "locus system." A locus is any discrete three-dimensional entity excavated in a trench. The key to the locus system is the recognition that a locus is any one thing. Differences in soil composition or texture are therefore as important as, for example, the difference between a pit and a wall. If two entities were distinct, they were considered separate loci and were therefore assigned separate locus numbers. It should also be noted that every context excavated in a trench was given a locus number and thus the trench itself is made up completely of excavated loci. |
