About the site
From the Field
-
We began drawing the faces of the baulks to record the vertical stratigraphy of the site this week. -
We began to remove the stone collapse this week to reveal the structure of the building, an exciting process. -
Our task this week involved cleaning back the topsoil, and the form of Building 24 is already visible. -
The first week this season with a big group of students, the team began work at the site of AAFS’ first excavation at Keem Bay. -
Preparing for our first excavation of the season at Keem Bay, we also finished survey work at Caraun Point.
