Raising $5000.00 … that is the goal. Half the money will fund dig scholarships for the tremendous young people coming this summer. The other half will fund our Small Finds Registrar (a returning student). Please, help. Every little bit does. Go to http://www.gofundme.com/NIPatHippos

The database and photo galleries from the Northeast Insula Project are gradually coming online this month. Two new menu items have been added to the top of each page: “Data” and “Galleries.” Each main menu displays sub menus that are the actual links. The ceramic corpus is finished and daily photo logs are coming online one year at a time. Database access is gradually being improved. Download features will be added eventually.
My goal is to have all items through 2010 viewable by March 1. Enjoy!
With much joy we report that former volunteers Cameron and Andrea (Chandler) Heiliger today welcomed Landon Edward Heiliger at 7:12 AM, Ankara time. Cameron and Andrea teach English in Ankara, Turkey. Mother and baby are resting well.
Very cute!
Frequent volunteer and “pot lover” Kristina Neumann is joining Archer Martin’s pottery team at Schedia, a site at the juncture between the Canopic Nile and a canal leading to Alexandria. Follow her adventure here.
Can it get any more exciting?
As part of the work of preparing an interim report on the Northeast Insula Project, I am putting more of the data into an online format. The ceramic catalog is now up. It is organized by year and photos are labeled by basket number. We hope at some point to link analysis to photos. See the catalog at https://northeastinsulaeproject.org/albums/ceramics/.
