| Entry: | DLG and JFB finished the drawing of burial F.3342 today. Afterwards, JFB proceeded to excavate the other burial (F.3347) in the disturbed fill above Sp.342. DLG tried to follow wall F.3344 southwards and noticed that is is cut by a pit that also cut wall ... click here for more... |

| Entry: | After clearing up the sandbag rubbish, I continued excavating U15394 in space 462 (lying under space 343) in order to clarify the structures. So far I can see the outlines of the three buttresses appearing as dark rectangles of mud brick on the ground (F3... click here for more... |

| Entry: | I continued excavating U15394, tracing the edges of the buttresses in about 30cm depth. The plaster of the buttresses, although clearly visible in the plan, is a bit tricky to trace in depth.
So far, the room fill appears very heterogeneous. Some kinds... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Exciting day in Trench 5.
DLG found the plastered face of wall F.3343 (by removing U.16930, probably still disturbed room fill in Space 343). The plaster is medium thick and medium firm and well preserved, but disturbed by a lot of rodent holes. In the... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Another exciting day in Trench 5.
DLG started cleaning the plastered face of wall F.3344 (removed fill U.16930). Afterwards, the base of the wall became visible; it is sitting on very homogeneous grey fill. It looks nearly like nicely sieved soil and m... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Carrying on with U 15394 in sp 462
I am now almost sure that the buttresses do not continue in more than 5-10cm depth. The plaster and mudbrick does not extend in depth. Instead, I have been finding a series of large ceramic sherds (almost complete ves... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Nice progress in the trench on Thursday and today, although several areas start to become more complicated than they seemed to be. As usual!
HLS continued to expose the plaster feature U.16932. We are not that sure any more that is is a floor, although... click here for more... |

| Entry: | We are preparing towards the end of the field season this year, and so far all spaces and excavation areas seem to come to a smooth and logical end ... let’s hope nothing unexpected (burials, gold, ovens) will happen in the next days!
DKK drew Space 34... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Today I resumed taking down the northern portion of unit 16949 in earnest in order to leave buttress 3337/3307 exposed but undamaged. With roughly a meter and a half to go before 16949 reached the same level as the bottom of unit 15394, I abandoned the s... click here for more... |

| Entry: | JHB continued working on cluster 16981, following it into Space 341; it ends in the doorway between Spaces 450 and 341, though – the cluster therefore is located north and northwest of buttress F.5057. In the doorway he uncovered a dense layer of phytolit... click here for more... |
