Notes: | There is a small amount of soil similar to the plow zone remaining in the east corner of the south extension of the excavation area, as of the morning of 26/04. Before we remove the tile scatter, we are going to remove this corner of plow zone in case it covers any more tiles. Billy dug B50 with a small pick. As we had hoped, more of the tile scatter was found underneath this layer. The tile scatter is now completely exposed, and is ready to be excavated. | |
