From January until August 2006 we have fieldwork Excavation Experiences.  There are three potential sites that we may be excavating in 2006.  Our primary site is the continued excavation of the four structures on Oranje Bay, as we hope to maximise the information we can gain from this site prior to a beach restoration project that is due to begin next year.  Other potential sites of interest are the Pleasures Estate, which was a sugar plantation and rum distillery complex.  The third possibility is a 17th century Dutch Reformed Church, that was abandoned in the 1740's in favour of a new site for the church.  Our schedule includes excavation in the morning, Monday to Friday with afternoons for artefact processing.   We provide opportunities to learn all dimensions of excavation and post-excavation.  From using a trowel to surveying, fieldwalking, archaeological photography, drawing site plans and profiles, artefact cleaning and conservation.
