The Skeleton

December 5, 2008
A cold front had blown in and while we were digging it was pretty chilly. As we drew closer to the end of the period we uncovered what seemed like bones. We removed some more dirt to find we had a while skeleton. From the initial look while it is still in the ground our team thinks that it is a young child.

Block Day

December 3, 2008
Today we had block day and we had to try and move as much dirt as we can since we only have one more week left of digging. We worked the whole time and have yet to find anything interesting. It will be interesting to see if we can finish the square by the end of the semester.

Dig

Today we really started on our new square. This was the first period that our whole team was able to work on this square. Brian spent some of the time uncovering the wall we have.

Class Stuff

December 1, 2008
Today we were in chapel dress so we were not able to go out and dig. We use these days to clean the material culture that we found in the previous week. Half of my team spent the time cleaning a pot and some sort of pipe that we found. The rest of us helped Charlie team recreate the wall they had in their first square.

Today we used the class time to glue statues back together. We also cleaned the bronze statue and shields for the statue.

Not There

I was not here today due to leaving town.

Moving Dirt

October 5, 2008
Today was the most physical day of the semester. Brian and I had to move a ton of dirt to uncover all the bricks we were missing. Once we reached those bricks we were able to put them back up to be able to see the real wall.
