Davids post I think hits several nails squarely on their heads.
How can an academic archaeologist understand say the intricacies of the debate on Neolithic mobility patterns when they don't fully understand the archaeological contexts within your average posthole?
During my masters degree I was shocked that I had to explain what a postpipe was (to some) and that the particular context that the charred grain in question came from was crucial to whether it likely derived from before the construction, during use, or after destruction/disuse of the structure.
