Description
Three trenches were excavated under archaeological supervision using a tracked excavator with a 1m wide toothless ditching bucket. The site had not been cleared, so the trenches were located to avoid large obstacles while still evaluating within or as close as possible to the footprint of the proposed building. Therefore, the length, width and shape of the
three trenches was varied.
