Interesting...

This had been (unfortunately) been just peeking out of this wall section for years, and now was finally able to be taken out with the trench extension.

Locals

---

Every year, the site director has a community day where all the people from the town come to our dig house and enjoy dinner and traditional dancing/music. These curious local kids found their way (by following one of our team) to our site near the end of our work day.

Trench

---

We extended our trench about 0.5 meters west, and 2 meters south this year to try and find some of the borders of our architecture. It was a success!

I was avoiding being in the way of our total station taking a point, hence my funny position.

Tragedy...

---

In the only burial that had any construction to it, I asked for help to take some points for the skeleton. As soon as this guy came over to help, he leaned on the wall and it partially collapsed onto my very nicely excavated skeleton... I was laughing and crying. He was lucky I already photographed it.

Pick axeing away.

One of the few times I got to pickaxe, it's pretty fun.

Ice cream!

---

We were working late, and got a nice treat of an ice cream break from the boss.

Cute!

This kitten followed some people back one day from their evening walk, and decided it liked it there with us and stayed! Don't worry, the mom cat found her eventually, and also stayed at the dig house as another mouser cat.
