Hello New lad at the forum
I do think that volunteers have a role to play in archaeology. As they can afford to have time to make a detail investigation on a subject than most of us. About volunteering digs can't see nothing wrong so long as it ran correctly and with a pro archaeologists. However on commercial site volunteers should not get involved in excavations as they can make easy mistakes and balls up if you understand, but help in washing finds and hands on things like this can be much more beneficial to the volunteer. I do in someway agree but in others I don't :face-huh:.
Volunteers may think of archaeology as Time Team with a great life but that is TV for you.
If in doubt its ritual
