15-11-48 CIRCUIT WALL

Clean the space between the two walls at the extreme south of the area. The early wall rests in part on rock, in part on red clay over the rock. The rock is cut back in a line continuing that of the archaic wall further N, and where this line reaches that of the LC wall, the latter is destroyed. It looks as if this were cut for the archaic wall, and that the preserved part here is a later rebuilding.

16-11-48 Clean a section between the two walls by the bend in the LC wall. Here archaic earth stops at a red level which runs under the LC wall in places. In other places the LC wall rests on the gravelly hard pan. Dig through the red, finding hardpan a cm. or two below.
