Nothing but bone

Two hours produced nothing but 2 bits of bird bone. Very dull.

However the following week I recovered some pottery sherds. I will wash and photograph them and upload them later in the week.

bones are important because they show us which species were on site.

Yes, but I am just not enthused by them in the way I am about stone. Actually, Victor has told me to look out for lots of meso and neolithic flints in amongst the Saxon stuff. The site is at the lower end of a slope below the church which he believes to be the site of occupation going way back into pre-history.
