The
afterlife of all the nice small finds had just begun once they've seen again the
sunlight.
The wide process of documentation and interpretation starts already
on the site and it continues in the laboratory where we wash and conserve, identify,
photograph and draw them, sorting according to their material, thus ensuring
the optimal storing conditions for each object.
The first
week of excavation already produced around 300 small finds, including several
coins, terracotta figurines, bronze fittings and a silver ring. Naturally,
handling all these cool things is really interesting, besides the basement of
the university offers a really nice climate in the summer heat. The two rainy
days this week helped us to get up to date with all the finds, so we are really
hoping the others will dig up some more superb objects!
