Still miffed that I've not got out on site this year (yet), but the sample processing with the new grid system really is crazy. Anyway, peculiar lack of student minions today and so naturally I find the shiniest thing from the samples so far: three black stone (?jet) beads, about the size of my little-fingernail. Then the county archaeologist walked past and randomly gave me ice cream.
Apologies for lack of comment ability: I am an utterly out of battery animal at present and communication defeats me. Good thoughts to y'all anyway. As always, for more NoB updates, see the
site blog.
