It’s that time of year again… I am headed to Sicily today, and on to Pantelleria tomorrow! We are really looking forward to the 2015 fieldwork season!
Thank you to HRI
Many thanks to the Humanities Research Institute at Brock University for awarding the project with some funding for the 2015 field season!
What a beautiful lake to survey…
Total station survey continuing at the Lago di Venere site!
Watch out for the zucchini!
GPR-ing in between giant zucchini today!
Rainy and windy day
It is a rainy and windy planning day. We are getting a closer look at the exposed features visible now on site with cleared vegetation and damp soil.
Let the survey begin!
Clive Vella and Carrie Murray started the digital survey with the Total Station yesterday. Tommy and Amanda Urban started the Ground Penetrating Radar today in the “Santuario di Venere” area.
2014 Survey Season Begins
Clive and I arrived safely on Pantelleria today! We went straight to the Comune,
and were given the key to the Santuario di Venere gated area.
New Beginnings!
I am now settled into the Department of Classics at Brock University in Canada. I can hardly believe that this is half way through the first semester. We are already working on plans for the new project based at Brock! More news to follow on plans for the 2014 field season.
Black Pearl of the Mediterranean
It is sad to be leaving Pantelleria again. We caught our last glimpse through the airplane window.
Off to Trapani for the day, and then on to Rome…!
Sorted!
Clive and I said our goodbyes to Tom. We ventured on to inspect a few more areas of accommodation.
Our planned ferry journey to Trapani on Sunday looks like it might be scuppered. We make a sudden change of plans to fly to Trapani with the new flights just added to the roster.
