Entry: Space 94 story: Fill 11937 was excavated today and it contains the very same material (mud brick with wood impressions) as 10286. The content of 11937 is burnt but much less than that of 10286. I think that when the fire started in the house 52, 119... click here for more...

Entry: The space 94 story still stands and we have exposed now the bench collapse 11940 which stil has 3 horns in it. We're removing now horns and skull from cluster 10281 and the matrix relationship between these two contexts is crucial. Two scenarios are possi... click here for more...

Entry: After working for a week in building 52 in the north shelter, I guess it's time to put some thought down.. The building has been left for display since 2005, since it was one of the more spectacular ones, with several platforms, bins, hearths and last but... click here for more...

Entry: Building 52. One building, seven siderooms and I don't even know how many floating features! Arriving to building 52 as a newcomer has truly been overwhelming. Even my dreams are infected by ideas of how the building adds up and what phase (-es) we're cur... click here for more...
