We had an unexpected visitor overnight that wanted to help us with our excavation, but he didn't realize that archaeologists do so much more than just digging holes!
Mieliśmy dziś niespodziewanego gościa w wykopie, który chciał nam pomóc, jednak nie zdawał sobie sprawy, że praca archeologa to coś więc niż kopanie dziur w ziemi!

The cemetery in Bezławki is unique in its abundance of juvenile burials, providing an excellent opportunity for real hands-on experience analyzing these remains.

Ze względu na bardzo dobry stan zachowania kości badania cmentarzyska w Bezławkach stwarzają bardzo dobrą okazję analizy i opracowania materiału osteologicznego już na etapie badań terenowych.
