| Notes: | This basket is removing a small area in the NW corner of the large area excavated in B 165. This small patch area is much more pebbley and less clay-like than the soil to the south and east of it. Bill is skeptical of its difference. The soil seems much less clay-like as we dig it. The small patch in the NW corner of the area is actually the same soil as that extending east simply with a few rocks on the surface so we are extending the basket east. Fortunately, this layer sat clearly on top of the white clay layer that was exposed by B 165. We pulled it off and now can remove the clay layer. Finds: pottery, bone | |
