Field Journal
Today, we worked in the outbuilding yard, where many buildings such as kitchens, slave houses, ice house, wash house, and a smoke house were located.
Before we started the dig, we learned about archaeology. We learned that archaeologists dig to find things from a long time ago to learn about people in the past. Also that artifacts are things that were made or used by people. We also learned that it is very important to know where we find the artifacts to learn about the past. Archaeology sites can be destroyed very easily, so we should always work with an archaeologist when digging them
