Entry: | Apart from excavation, micromorphological samples were taken in our trench today by LMS. The specialists came in to take samples of three deposits and surfaces in the southern section of Space 342 and of wall F.2424 in Space 342. We intend to sample wall ... click here for more... |

Entry: | JFB drew burial F.3347 today and took out the bones. It turns out that some of the skeleton is outside trench borders, we are currently discussing what to do about that. She was assisted by a micromorphology specialist taking samples to identify rest of s... 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: | 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: | JHB and CMB continue to excavate lenses of room fill in Space 342, which are distinguishable from each other by certain characteristics such as number and size of sherds, colours and inclusions (U.16958, U.16959). It seems that these lenses are lying on t... click here for more... |

Entry: | Apart from room fill excavation, we set out on a wall finding mission today, trying to define the walls in the trench extension that we have been seeing and feeling for a while, but which are still clouded by disturbances. We want to identify these walls ... 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!

Entry: | Second last day in the trench, and a exciting day. Apart from very nice small finds, and in general many finds, we attributed two new building numbers: The building encompassing Spaces 310 and 454 is now Building 106, since its southern wall (F.3352) was ... click here for more... |

Date: | 8/2/2011 |
Entry: | Today we discovered that the wall I had been uncovering (3344) was actually floating on a very homogenous fill and was likely not the wall of room 343 like we had previously thought. This leaves us with two mysteries; to what building does the wall belon... click here for more... |

Date: | 8/7/2011 |
Entry: | Today I continued in the same area as yesterday, but with a vastly different approach. Instead of trying to define mudbricks that appeared essentially indefinable, I decided to instead create a section starting from the edge of the last recognizable plac... click here for more... |
