General remarks | This is an arbitrary layer located between L1071 (foundation trench) and L1068 (NE fire pit) and L1075 (northern section of wall). Three large stones were located on top of this layer (possibly associated with L1075) and were planned in, photographed, and removed. |

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. |
