Earlier this week Boone and I made a semi-surprise visit to Heidi and the gang at the archaeology field school going on in Old Deerfield, on the grounds of the Barnard Tavern.
We learned that the most annoying thing visitors can can ask during a dig is "Find anything yet?" Therefore, we asked this question multiple times during our short visit.
There are several pits being excavated as part of this dig. The pit on the right has been nicknamed The Stargate because 17th and 18th century artifacts have been unexpectedly found above more recent items.
(Here's a real Stargate.)
