Well written, but what about the one of us who ARE professional archaeologists, i.e. unemployed; you should write an article called “ten top tips for getting OUT of Archaeology”

I enjoyed all four of the programs very informative. I did wish that they would not play too much on drinking beer.Very funny I suppose,but don`t you need a clear head when digging holes? But over all very good.Any more?

Dear Cassandra,

The best thing to do to contact the project directly – the person to get in touch with is Dr David Klingle, who is the osteoarchaeologist working on this. His email address is david.klingle@yahoo.co.uk, and you can find out more information on their website: http://test.ridgewaystudio.co.uk/links/OSTEOLOGY/index.html

I hope this helps!

Dear Carolyn,

The best thing to do is to contact the project directly, as they will be able to advise you whether this is possible at their dig. It’s run by the Colchester Archaeological Group, and their contact details can be found in the grey box at the top of this page.

Best of luck!

I am hoping to take a handful of A level students on a dig and wondered whether we might be able to visit in w/b June 11th.

Yours, hopefully,

To dig, or not to dig, that is the question:
Whether ’tis easier in the mind to lose all
Through winds and tides of outrageous erosion,
Or to take up trowels against a Sea of troubles,
And by excavating, record them: to research, to publish……that’s the rub

Settlement under the Sand:
I did a bit of volunteering with Jane Harrison and David Griffiths on the East Oxford Archaeology project at Bartlemas Chapel. I was very impressed by their efficiency and their skills in organising this quite difficult project all around a still functioning chapel and with a large variety of participants as well. Some exciting finds were made and are being carefully conserved and documented.

I am sure Jane and David’s Orkneys project will be extremely interesting and rewarding; and, especially given the distance too (sadly I can’t volunteer up there!),it deserves enthusiastic support.
