Week 1

On Tuesday, we finally got going after our rain delay, so only a total of three days in the field. So far, we've completed all the shovel test pits of the smaller of two areas we'll be testing this season. Some artifacts have been recovered, but no unknown features were found. Next week, we'll begin excavating the two visible surface features.

Class on the first day, clean and awkwardly taken by surprise with unexpected photo.

First shovel test of the day.  Here, I'm trying to impart good technique.

Examining first potential artifact of project

Feature 1 with surface accumulation cleared (twine borders funky due to lack of good spots for nails)

First run through with screening.
