Going away for the next 2 weeks to a dig!

Rhodes · 07-13-08, 10:31 AM

Going away for the next 2 weeks to an archaelogic and anthropologic dig! Every year I go to this dig, it's almost like "the every year vacantion".

So, when I came back, I want to see subsim up and running and the same people posting here... And you can go posting here what happens!!!

Untill 2 weeks people!

Your going to dig trenches in Franc...oh, that kind of dig...

Well, good luck

Schroeder · 07-13-08, 03:07 PM

Good luck in iluminating the past.

Rhodes · 07-25-08, 07:02 AM

Back, and as always, bones, bones, and more bones!!!

Platapus · 07-25-08, 01:34 PM

Stay safe and have a good time.

If you find any scrolls, don't read them aloud ok?

Schroeder · 07-25-08, 01:41 PM

Er, he is already back.

SUBMAN1 · 07-25-08, 05:59 PM

No post means he hasn't found anything. :hmm:

Always wanted to be an archaeologist and go on a dig.

Can you bring us back some photos?

Rhodes · 07-26-08, 12:30 PM

Do not insult me, I am not an archaeologist, I am an Anthropologist!!!

Eheheheh, little humor here in Portugal, since both courses are separated and have some competition!
The place is a dolmen, from a megalitic complex! Their are 4 or more; number one was already studied! So many human remains and , and the soil is very hard and very difficult to dig!
But we manage to recover many things!

A Megalitic Complex.....something like this perhaps :hmm:

Like what, for instance? :hmm:

I'm deeply fascinated...

Rhodes · 07-27-08, 12:45 PM

Like this stone "axe":

It's the third of it kind, and human remains like this:

An left Tibia (fragment) that I think it suffered a fracture. By this pic, one can not tell, only with the bone in hand!

Schroeder · 07-27-08, 01:19 PM

Do you already know how old that stuff is?

Platapus · 07-27-08, 04:32 PM

So lemme get this straight.

The only difference between an Anthropologist and a Dumpster Diver is a few hundred years?
:rotfl:

Possibly, but since i don't know what is a dumpster diver, or the correct translation to portuguese I can not awnser you!:p
I say more that an grave-digger put bones in, and an anthropologist take bones out...

The datation of the place is around five thousand years BC or more I think. Late mesolithic, neolithic and early or/and chalcolithic periods; give or take 1 thousand years...
