Hello all,
Even
though I’s gazing out at another rainy, grey day, but I am pleased to announce
that the Dorchester on Thames excavation is now open again for registration!
This is
the last year of the Discovering Dorchester project and we would love to have
as many new and old faces there as possible.
We need to
work out the tricky stratigraphy around our pit complexes in the north of the
site and burrow our way through those greyish green silts that emerged below
the Roman road – so there is still a lot to do.
The dates
this year are 24th June – 6th July for the undergraduate
field school, and 8th – 13th and 15th – 20th
July for Weeks A and B (respectively) of the Public/Continuing Education dig. I
hope that some of you can make these times.
There is a
slight change this year. Could I direct all your queries and interested emails
to the dig’s official email:
Whether
you are an undergraduate looking for an excavation or wanting to get ‘in’ on
one of the public fieldschool weeks, if you email then I will be more than
happy to send you over the relevant documentation, including the information
packs.
For now,
though, see below a picture of the excavation from the air taken during the course
of last season.
Hope you
have a wonderful week and I look forward to hearing from some of you,
Thomas
(Assistant Director)
