| Entry: | Today I was drawing with Katie all day long. First we draw the outlines of roomfill 16859, and then the walls in the northwest corner in the trench. The second task turned out to be really challenging, firstly to see the walls which had been truncated by ... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Smooth workflow today. Maxime, Katie and me tried to find the borders of the disturbed area 16861, which turned out to be much larger than we thought. Its borders are not visible everywhere, but I think we got it quite well by feeling where the soil would... click here for more... |
