| Entry: | We began cleaning B.43 yesterday afternoon, finishing up in today's morning section. I haven't reviewed all of the relevant literature yet, but, building on Agata's brief summary, it is clear that the building has been heavily weathered, what with being e... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Posting for 7/28/2013:

| Entry: | Today we exposed more of the cranium and found vertebrae beneath. The human remains team could see that the position of the cranium was strange in relation to the extent of the burial cut. After digging deeper and no more bones were found it became clear ... click here for more... |
