Entry: Today in Trench 6 we worked on the pits in the northwestern quarter (13823, 13819), both of them were sectioned, 13823 at a N-S line at 673,75E and 13819 at a N-S line at 672E.
It was very hard to find the edges of 13819, and while digging the western section it was even harder to find any border of this pit. After lunch, by cleaning the section, I recognized that there is a plasterd floor under that pit,heavily disturbed by animal burrows in the northern and southern direction, but it goes on in the W-E direction. The botton of the pitt seems also a little bit clearer now, but needs a little discussion tomorrow.
In 13823 there Naoise recognized a animal burrow (13826) in the north part of the section, from which various tunnel leading outwards and mud bricks in the northern part.
In the southeastern quarter of the trench, where the team of students of Selcuk University was working, there is the grave (Feature 2454) disturbed on the western side, so the mudbricks (13825) disappear by the cut of the pit (13829). West of this pit there is a stone cist (13830) located.
Directly beneath the mud bricks (13825, on the outer side of the grave, there was a fragment of a incised EC potstand (X12, Unit 13801).Entered By: CS
