Entry: | Everbody seemed a bit tired today, even the lovely finds (e.g. a bead from unit 16880 continued by JMR - space 340) and a potstand from unit 16898 (space 310, continued by AWH) couldn't make us sing and dance in the trench. Work progressed much faster now... click here for more... |

Entry: | Today I was mainly excavating the baby skeleton with Brenda. There are no legs but the rest is fine. Mostly I was thinking about bourdieu's concept of the habitus whilst excavating. The fact that the baby was a neonate really got me into ideas of accultur... click here for more... |
