- Extended trenches from 84 to 112 sqm.
- The County Museum’s Lotta Feldt and Linnea Hernqvist surveyed our visible features with an RTK GPS.
- Found more gold foil figures for a maximum total of 33 from Aska. This number may prove lower when fragments are fitted. But we are certainly past Helgö’s number now.
- Identified many features of the mead hall’s architecture that we had already seen on the geophys. And got a clearer idea of the wide, backfilled mid-19th century ditch that runs obliquely across the mead hall’s east half.
- Discovered more butchery refuse pits from around 1900. They have primarily damaged the inner of the two south wall lines. This complication offers a fun opportunity for true stratigraphic excavation.
Aardvarchaeology - by Dr. Martin Rundkvist 
Ditches and refuse pits damaging older structures- the ubiquotus curse of old, fertile agricultural areas. I hope you will still get useful information from the damaged parts.
