| Notes: | excavation of B29 began on 23/04/07 after I drew B29 and its nearby associated baskets and features. Cleomene is the excavator. He began by cutting the roots on the surface and then using a handpick started to remove B29. Three large cobbles and 2 tree roots (from orange tree removed with B21) were in B29 so Cleomene removed them. In the extreme NW section of B29 Cleomenes came down upon a deposit of black soil that looks like it could contain a certain degree of grey ash. This grey ash may be part of the destruction layer which the tile scatter to the E is part of or lies on top of. | |
