Day Fifteen

We are nearing the end of Week Three which means there are lots of changes ahead. Many volunteers come for only three weeks and some students will go home this weekend just as new ones arrive.

The end of the first three weeks also means we’ll have our first Tel Tour this Friday. This is an opportunity for students to visit other excavation areas and learn about what’s been found. We’ll have pictures of the tour this weekend.

As for today, here are some pictures from around the excavation.
