The team at Area 1 continued excavations to reveal a potential next phase of occupation. The complete removal of Context 60 revealed a beautiful working floor filled with red, orange and white ash colors. In the process of removing Context 60, five new contexts were revealed including a possible base for a work bench, the second forge (already revealed but now cleaned), a smashed pot presumably for storage, and another potential raw floor. The afternoon consisted of cleaning the site and documenting the new Contexts appropriately as this new layer demonstrates a complex developing story. At the cistern, the team continued excavating and cleaning the site, almost completing the structure for the first time.
