An isolated block excavation refers to an archaeological evacuation that process in 1-x1 meter sections one at a time. This is probably the closest statement for your question if the excavation site only involves a small portion but usually this strategy is used for wide excavations where trenches are dug and separated into thick blocks or columns of soil.
