Introduction
Keeping track of ecavation activities in a large unit can be difficult, particularly with a small number of supervisory archaeologists. Careful sketches documenting daily progress are useful in writing summaries and keeping track of ceramics and objects found in the course of the day.

Sample sketch
Sketches are made on a stylized form that represents active unit loci. Features being excavated, including soil and structures, are recorded along with items and q-lots recovered. An example from 3 September 2006 (Sk 48 Q903) is shown below. Illustrated are the aproximate locations of features, q-lots, and items excavated that day. A few sketches made, usually at the beginning or at the end of the season, show the location of the numerous relays and markers used to define the coordinates of features.
