15. IX. 65 (Continued)

The North end of one of the blocks of the rampart, situated roughly in the alignment of the East-West street running along building 18, is taken as the reference point zero for the numbering of the sectors of investigation of 4.00 m × 4.00 m - To date the North area comprises 5 sectors - The South area 4 sectors. In this last area, a control balk of 1.00 m × 4.00 m, oriented East-West, is demarcated in sector 2. This first day of investigation remains completely sterile. This area of the west rampart is covered by a grey-black silt which does not contain any sherd or other finds in the first forty centimetres at least - The day has been particularly hot. Setting up of the topographic nails: A, B, C, D, E, F.
