In B-South excavations continued in B74; B84 and B85 were newly opened. In Area C the eastern half of C0 and the western halves of C10 and C20 were opened, while the balks between C11/21, C21/22 and C10/20 were removed; digging continued in the eastern halves of C10 and C20. In the newly opened steep-sloped Area F, Squares F10-12 were excavated. The only operation in Area D was the excavation of the collective burial.
