NB: Each excavation grid square is marked by number and letter designations. The designations are placed outside the square to which they belong, at the SW corner. Thus, in the drawing above, “A” refers to the cross-hatched sector/square on the plan; and “B” refers to the dotted sector/ square on the plan.
