Friday 7 December 1962

The afternoon is devoted to the protection measures for the Hall: layer of sand recovered with a mattress of earth, in order to preserve if possible in its present state, the floor III until the 1963 campaign. Meanwhile, I am drawing the stratigraphic section of the south side of the rectangular "Pit", crossing the lower layers, under the 3 floors of the Protogeometric Hall.

At 16h, closing of the excavations with the male workforce, pay of the workmen who worked in the Trench East, on the clearing of the "hall with bull's heads". Only those who workwould still work the next day, Mikael and the two specialists Manoli.
