Binchester 2013: Day 2

A second day of beautiful weather on site. We are already really motoring and our 1st year students are doing a great job. In Trench 1, the exposure of a cobble/gravel surface between the barrack and the rampart has continued apace, although the stratigraphic relationship between the surface and the clay of the rampart is still not clear. At the southern edge of the trench we've found more evidence of a wall that runs parallel to and to the east of the barrack. Its still not clear whether this a structural feature or just the edge of a drainage gulley to match the one that runs along the inside edge of the rampart. Elsewhere in this trench, its just been more cleaning back of layers onto surfaces and defining surfaces. Cameron has been busy cleaning up an almost complete cow skull in a pit, which he is hoping to remove whole. Nicest find of the day from this trench? A carnelian intaglio- the third we've had from this trench. In Trench 2, the removal of the interior deposits in the main building has been on-going. In the biggest room, the stone lining has been taken out and revealed a lovely dark deposit which has allowed us to get stuck in with mattocks and shovels. As the level of this interior fill has gone down, another blocked opening (window or door) has started to appear - this time in the western wall of the building. Lots more work going on in the latish post-pad building that stands between the main building and Dere Street. We've now got a flag stone surface, although it is not clear whether this is a floor to the structure or an underlying pavement on the street frontage. Outside the trenches, we were also visited today by Faye Simpson from MMU and .... one of her Phd students. They are working on a project to explore the impact of excavation on happiness - this kind of research on the way in which working on excavations affects peoples wellbeing is new stuff, but potentially of great importance. I'm hoping to persuade Faye or Abbey to contribute a blog post to explain more about their work.

  1. My name is Antonio Jefferson Cole, I'm in Salt Lake City, Utah. It is a pleasure for me to write this testimony about how I got healed from genital herpes 12 hours ago. I have read so many comments from some people who have been cured of HIV by Dr. Ekpiku, but I never believed them. I was hurt and depressed, so I was very curious and wanted to try Dr. Ekpiku, so I contacted him on his email Ekpikuspellhomeofgrace@gmail.com when I get in touch with him, he assured me 100% that it will heal me, I begged Him to help me. My treatment was a great success, he healed me as he promised. He sent me his medication and asked me to go for check-up after 2 weeks of taking the medication. I agree with him, I took this medication and went to the check-up after 2 month, to my greatest surprise my result was negative after treatment, I am really happy that I am healed and healthy again. I waited for four months to make sure I was completely healed before writing this testimony. I did another blood test today and was still negative Herpes, so I think its time I tell someone out there with Herpes HSV-1 or HSV-2, HIV, HPV, hepatitis B, diabetes, cancer and so on, Dr. Ekpiku in the email: Ekpikuspellhomeofgrace@hotmail.com . Your phone number is +2348073673757, He is also on whats app. I completely understand how you can feel skeptical about it, because it happened to me, it can be expensive for you, but I'm telling you now that there is a cure for these diseases and I am a living witness firsthand.or you can email me on antoniojeffersoncole@gmail.com for any assistance.

  5. i have been suffering from a deadly disease (Hsv) for the past 3 years now, I had spent a lIot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how Dr Onokun helped someone in curing his (Hsv) herpes disease, quickly I copied his email which is Dronokunherbalcure@gmail.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, behold I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on : Dronokunherbalcure@gmail.com
