| Entry: | Previously in building 105:
APV and I dug unit 31184 to an arbitrary level about 10-20 cm below the top levels. The soils and finds have been discussed in the unit sheet. The unit is probably a fill composed of wall erosion and waste disposal. The bric... click here for more... |

In Space 448, TET and PAB scraped the bottom some more after finishing the big fill layer 31169 yesterday. After that, we saw two spots that very certainly were buttresses, even though they are still fuzzy at this le... click here for more... |
