As I told you last season, the 2014 season will be our last in Turkey. We are not going to be excavating this season on the mound or lower town, but we are still anticipating lots of interesting discoveries. Our goal this season is to fully process and record previously excavated finds stored in our depot\u00a0in preparation for the\u00a0final publications. This is the unglamorous side of archaeology &#8211; long hours in the laboratories &#8211; but very rewarding work.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1110\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1110\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/ziyaret\/files\/2014\/06\/in-the-garden.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1110\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/ziyaret\/files\/2014\/06\/in-the-garden.jpg\" alt=\"The first day of work.

Today, we opened our depots and set up a temporary field camp. On Friday, we will move into the local school that has served for the past two years as our field camp, but in the meantime we have accomodations at a hotel in Bismil. The garden will be a comfortable spot for a few days and here you see Jane, Tina, Emily, Tim and Azer (Willis took the picture) hard at work. With such a short field season (our last day is August 15) there is no time to waste! Check back in for our latest discoveries in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our last digging season ended in a whirlwind of activity and I&#8217;ve been meaning to go back and finish off the last 2013 blog entries for months&#8230; and here it is 2014 already!
