I\u2019m Kayne and I\u2019m a BA Archaeology student at Lampeter in my final year.\u00a0 I\u2019m returning to the excavation this year both as a volunteer and a student and as an intern.<\/p>\n

Last year I worked on trench 9 where we found possible medieval plough marks and 2 flint flakes.\u00a0 This year I hope to better myself.\u00a0 I extended trench 10 by 2 x 8m and deturfed it, I then cut and deturfed trench 10, and then moved back into field 1.\u00a0 This is where we have cut a trench alongside trench 4, and will hopefully pick up a Late Neolithic feature.\u00a0 The feature being charcoal, we\u2019ve exposed a large burnt area and have extracted 4 flints.\u00a0 We placed our trench alongside trench 4 to imitate Mortimer Wheeler\u2019s box-grid method to enable monolith sampling to be taken.<\/p>\n
