DIARY 1380 northern southern extension of Pit 75 to point west of tomb monument of Pit 64 - strat 11a & 11b.
March 22 Removed p 1367-4 & p 1371-4 clean sand - same strat. as p. 127-5. Section on p. 1367 doesn't show 4 as this strat. of sand is further north than section line. Shows in p 1371. Began removing p 1367 & 1371 strat 5. In cleaning out Pit 60 of all the earth & washings that came in since the war, some earth on east side of trench was also removed which had been there before the war. This was not noticed by workmen inasmuch as this formed part of an ancient fill of an ancient intrusive pit - the same as we have noticed in further east - p 1167 & 1171. Removing Grid A-Γ south 0-2, strat 2. (See File 115-10) Began removing an intrusive pit dug into strat 2 Grid (Γ-1.00-Δ) - ΙΓ, north 0-2
