| Notes: | Trench I On SE side of the hill in a place where there are two {banks} one above the other. We are digging a transverse trench from S.E. to N.W. ca. 1.00 m wide. We are digging in sections of 2 - 2 ½ m. [drawing of Trench I showing four excavated sections labelled A, C, E and g, of equal length between unexcavated sections of the same length] [section drawing showing slope of hill with sections A, C and E labelled] [p. 202] We are digging independently in these 3 sections and keep the pottery separate. We go by passes or tavania of ca. 0.20 m. The first passa I call "I". All pottery is carefully gathered into baskets marked according to section AI CI EI. When the first passa is finished, the baskets are removed and empty ones substituted. These are for the 2nd passa. And will be labelled AII CII and EII. In AI and EI, on account of the slope and washing away the pottery is likely to be a bit mixed. In CI there is a good proportion of Urfirnis.
