We do have a pretty long, intact nail sticking out of our sidewall that we will work on extracting once we get back to digging. We also found a fairly large piece of Terracotta pipe that we've been told was likely used for irrigation. At roughly 25cmbd we located some of the same sandstone that other pits have reported finding as well.
One thing I would like to point out as well, is the innordinate amount of asphalt we've encountered across the site, and I wanted to know if there was any ideas as to why we would encounter it where we have so far. CU-1 seemed to be plagued with the stuff between 20-30cmbd.
Anyways, that's all I've got for now, see you in Lab on Saturday.
Hey Andrew,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post, David was mentioning that there was an old access road that was made out of asphalt that could have led to all the debris that we see in the holes. I wonder if there can be a map drawn of the known pits and possibly map out this "old road" that we can figure out. I was located at CU-2 where there was a lot of goodies, there we found large bones, shard of glass, and a large pieces of ceramics. I think it might have been some form of fire pit of some kind, but so far I can`t speculate, only digging. Well good luck at CU-1 and CU later!
