Another glorious day
of sunshine, seems we picked the best weeks of the year to do our dig, or
possibly the weather knows that we don’t want to be working in rain and mud!
Unsurprisingly we
carried on finding more stones - and more stones, as we carried on digging
down. The upper trench got expanded across another wall and today finds
actually appeared; bits of bone, teeth and the mysterious - not stone, not
pottery - artefacts.

The smaller trench
that was added yesterday, today uncovered more flat stones creating a conundrum
of an uneven floor, perhaps.
In the large trench
beside it we also found some charcoal, enough to carbon date, so there’s some
hope there. But otherwise very little has happened today.
Yet again, today we
received some excellent almond slices and cherry sponge cake, which weren’t
enjoyed by the sheep that decided to join us today and leave their own trails
on the trenches.
