Lots of digging today and so the pits got deeper and deeper. The soil was scraped away with the trowels and everything was kept, because each 'find' tells an archaeologist something about the past.
Look down the pit to see a deeper context. What can you see?
What is interesting in the finds tray from today?
What you said.....
Exciting to find an ancient bit of pottery.
Best thing about visit was finding pottery!
Was good to do something which we wouldn't normally do.
My children loved this activity and so did I. Thank you.
