Entry: JHB and JMK removed the bins, which are now called F.3377, nicely sampling all the removed construction and fill. We had a discussion about whether or not this actually is a construction feature, or some unfortunate erosion/rubbish – I so far believe the ... click here for more...

Entry: August 17, 2013 Today I finished the rest of the section I was working on. First, I excavated the floor sections, and then the fill that was under the floor. When that was finished, I had just begun making sure that the section walls were straight and al... click here for more...
