Location: Woodland mound site, american mid-west.
Day six: I am made of sun burn. The food could be worse.
We broke ground three days ago, after gridding and learning how to grid the site. Site wide, we have found many artefacts so far. Many chert flakes, small potsherds, fire cracked rock, a couple of very nice projectile points and one spectacular rim piece potsherd.
Tomorrow my teammates and I will move down another five-ten cm in our unit, maybe more if we don't find anything cool to slow us down. We spend all our time talking about the dig itself or grad school. I think I want to specialize in paleo work, maybe in the artic.
when I was thrity I thought all my dreams had turned to dust.
Heh.
Tomorrow I turn 39, and i can't imagine a happier birthday.
I hope you are all doing as well.
no surrender, no defeat.
