Flinders Dig at Mallala

On Friday we exercised our archaeological brains with Flinders University field school. They were investigating a former pub located at the intersection of 7 roads. The remains of the pub have been plowed over for decades and most of the stone was removed.

The students flagged each artifact and then were gathering the spacial information of their location. Each one was bagged and labeled with the point data to plot back in the lab.


I surveyed a bit outside of the area plowed up recently to see how far the scatter went across the field. A beautiful working environment.


Back in MI we saw a track of a small animal in the snow & out in this field, the tire tracks reminded us of that shot. Ahh, the serenity.


The sun was setting & the pub was calling us to discussions over the historic pub we were recording for the day. One last recording before everyone packed up.
