Circuit wall: I have had one man digging for several days in the circuit ball area shown on p. 18. The sequence of strata has been the following 1. plowed top-soil 2. unplowed top-soil, ending with a fairly level bed of stones, without apparent order, but stopping roughly with the outer face of the wall. 3. Stones (#2), lying on and in gummy brown earth, not an integral part of any masonry. These stones lie on and among the top layer inside + out, of the outer circuit wall, and go to strosis 3a east, + 4 in the west 3a (E only) a thick layer of stones, looking like tumble, and apparently going under the present inner face of the wall outer wall. These are in the E and lie upon + against the earlier stroseis in the west 4. Below #3 in the west. (11.45-11.65) Cleaner grey brown earth with coarse godud. The stones of strosis 3 do not continue into it. (to p. 25)
