Just another thing..... Can I ask curators out there if they would be willing to spend more time on site and communicating with the diggers? One of those recurring problems is where the archaeology on site is presented to the visiting curator and almost exclusively via the senior staff. Not to put too fine a point on this but, MIFA is not a certificate of trowel-worthyness across the board for senior site staff. Diggers should be the eyes and ears of the curators-but, only when dialogue is encouraged and, facilitated.
