| Entry: | Today SRW and I continued to remove concentrations of thick chalky fill from space 342. Having recorded a lens of an ashy grey material on the previous day (unit 18310) we were able to define this further. As a result we believed that unit 18310 represent... click here for more... |

| Entry: | Continued in space 342 with OMV, removing a curious grey, ashy fill (18310) that had been discerned yesterday along the eastern edge of (arbitrary layer) fill 18309. Particular caution was exercised due to the presence above the north-western area of 1831... click here for more... |

With periodic help from OMV (who also spent time in space 343), ER and PFB, a significant portion of unit 18328 has today been excavated. It would seem that, in keeping with the northward slope downwards of the upper extent of unit 18328, th... click here for more... |
