AREA 3000Nella porzione meridionale del settore si è proceduto con la rimozione del riempimento US 3841 di US – 3840 a matrice argillosa di colore grigio-giallastro e di consistenza abbastanza compatta. A nord della fossa sepolcrale US - 3858 sono state indagate due buche di piccole dimensioni, di cui una (US – 3879), piuttosto profonda e di forma quadrata, collocata ad est di US – 3877 e l’altra, US – 3849, di forma circolare. È possibile che entrambe le buche siano state realizzate per ospitare dei piccoli pali, forse dei segnacoli funerari per le tombe US – 3858 e US - 3830, oppure per la realizzazione di una struttura lignea collegata alle fasi di cantiere per la costruzione della chiesa di XI secolo. Nella porzione settentrionale, dopo aver abbassato il settore, si è proceduto con la pulizia accurata, con lo scopo di mettere in luce i nuovi livelli raggiunti. Today at the site we cleaned up the whole section of the site.
Three cuts and fills on the south side were excavated. A serious and two holes, one of which is potentially a severe marker. Contact sheets were filled out for these and measurements as well as photographs were taken. Madison was in GIS lab. |
AREA 5000In the cut within section D two more bones were uncovered, an arm bone and an unidentified bone. The femur was uncovered more and a fill within the hole was dug uncovering bone fragment, including a part of a jaw with a tooth still attached as well as several glass fragments. Today the students in section C continued unearthing the cranium that was discovered yesterday. In that same hole pieces of pottery were found and a picture was taken. Three more holes were dug on the western side of the wall that separates section C and D. At least one was defined as a posthole, and is assumed that the hole was cut by the building of the wall. In two of the holes, pieces of burnt brick were uncovered and in the southernmost new hole, a piece of blackened pottery was found. The rest of area C was cleaned. |
