On September 6th, my class did an archeological dig. We shaved the dirt and cleared it in order to find some ancient artifacts. What we found in the school were bones, bracelets, beads, a sword, roman coins, and pottery. After about a week of digging, we were ready to analyze.





  The fascinating thing was that this was all at school. The sword was found in a hole, pots were scattered, bone and bracelets were in a hole, and beads, coins, and other bones were scattered. We believe that some of the coins were from the roman age. The pottery was probably from the 1st century.


 
  The process of our analysis was to clean the artifacts, and then assemble the pottery. After that the whole class walked around to observe the items and took  notes. I thought the metal items were rusty, and the other non-metallic objects were in pretty decent condition. We also analyzed how the items were used, like how the coins were used for currency.


   My theory as to what happened is a murder. Let me explain, so there was this girl that wore bracelets, and a bead necklace along with a broche that was gathering water for her family. Then suddenly out of nowhere a stranger went up to her and killed her with the sword and then left the sword there. Anyways that is my opinion of what happened, and my example of the dig.
