Friday was also spent inside working on projects. I will be rapping up my blog. Overall my experience in the class was very educational. I enjoyed not having to be in class and to be able to work with my hands. My team and I were able to get things done and cooperate well together. My favorite part of the class was being able to uncover artifacts that I probably would of never thought of before.

Today we began cleaning the big pot that we recovered the other day. It wasn't too bad and didn't take very long to clean. It was pretty well intact only two pieces had chipped off. We also cleaned the Basalt grinder which had dirt in small spaces. It took a little more time to fully clean it. The other team went out to the field and continued digging trying to uncover a skeleton that was partially uncovered.

Today we just continued leveling our square. We were unable to find anything to interesting,but the other square that just started up a few days ago found a skeleton. They first uncovered its shoulder region. As they went farther down they were able to determine that is was a child. Some of the diggers at first thought it was a midget. The head archaeologist said that its was probably no probable.

We went out to the field and got started pretty quickly. We rapidly chopped up dirt with the pickax. My team was able to move a lot of dirt out of the square almost bringing the square to an even top. Also we have almost reached to the point on the pot in our square were we will be able to uncover totally.
