Day 3

One of the nice things about this experience is that I get to meet very interesting people. There are four of us assigned to grid w...a girl from the university of Tel Aviv; a Phd student from Germany; a crazy Englishman...and me. Today I also attended a very interesting lecture by Dr. Lidar Sapir-Hen a Archaeozoologist on how to interpret bones (in an archaeological setting, not sangoma bones)








Notice the mosaic floor (top middle) some pottery (bottom middle) and the handle of a Byzantine period pot in the top left corner.




This is the top of a glass bottle that I found...




The handle of that pot in the earlier photo...




Just look at this stunning piece of pottery from the Crusader period, so it is very old, notice the yellow glaze and pattern...




This is glass in limestone...beautiful colour!. We also found another coin but again I am not allowed to show you that on a public domain...but will show you when I get home.
