Man down!

Joe and his group tackle post-med debris:

This afternoon our group had the job of removing a layer of post-medieval debris with mattocks and hand shovels. Unfortunately, our group was forced to toil away at this sun-baked layer a man down due to Oliver going AWOL on us. After deciding that this betrayal could not go unanswered, we concocted the story that we had found a gold Roman Sestertius (which don't even really exist - normally they are silver or copper alloy) on site in his absence. Needless to say he believed every word....

PS. I don’t think he reads the blog, so if everyone can keep up this pretense it would be much appreciated!

Joe works on taking the trench down to Roman layers.
