Today was our last day in digging in
our square and we discovered a distinct earth floor. We also found a
lot of large charcoal pieces, this was an exciting end to the
excavation in our square for the season. It was amazing to see how
deep we had gotten in just 2 weeks of digging. I also went on a house
visit today to Mohammad's Awauda's home. It was interesting to
observe all of the cultural differences and also the family-oriented
environment. His brothers all live very close to him in the same
neighborhood. While sitting with Mohammad at his mother's home, three
of his brothers stopped by with their wives to come spend time with
each other. After Mohammad's house, we went to his brother's house
which was about a 3 minute walk. There we met the younger children of
the families, who sat in the living room with all of us. We were
served tea and coffee, and talked with each other for a long time.
Today, our workers in Field O brought us food for second breakfast. My favorite! Golia, hummus, and bread.
