@CaraJones82 @archaeologyEAA More organisations should have a ‘train first’ policy for sure. The Man in Seat 61 is a great resource for travel in Europe too :)

It might be Friday night but I’m blogging like crazy! Here’s the latest on the penultimate day of fieldwork & excavations at #Drumadoon2023 - lots of recording and some mild panic setting in!

I love these photos of Darko Maricevic doing geophysics around Trench 1 at #Drumadoon2023. He’s an eccentric genius!

And that's a wrap! After a few hours of intense backfilling, we successfully closed them up and left the area looking untouched. A big applause to everyone who helped out – students, volunteers, staff, and funders! 🙌

Today we took 175 soil samples from our trenches!!

Last day of the #Drumadoon2023 dig. Today’s agenda is mainly focused on finishing recording trenches 1 & 2 and taking the last environmental samples before backfilling. ✍️🪣 #ScotlandDigs2023

[Archaeology Scotland @ArchScot]

Preparing for a really hot day at the site today! Making sure the equipment is good to go and eating yesterday's melted and re-solidified Haribo for an energy boost #Drumadoon2023 #ScotlandDigs2023 🍬
