The first day on the dig is a day to get organized. With so many volunteers it seemed chaotic to me–pulling weeds, setting up screens, marking out squares, scrounging for tools. I am very thankful for veteran volunteers who help make the work possible and keep some order amidst the seeming chaos.
Still interesting things are happening. Ian discovered a coin. A wall seems to be emerging where we expected it in E8. And we are about ready to uncover the beautiful mosaic in B0.
Tomorrow we have the first full day of digging (and pottery washing). What will the site yield?
