Blog 1: Pre-Departure<\/p>\n

This summer will be my third time attending the Poggio Civitate Archaeological Field School. This year, I will be a trenchmaster and I will be given a trench to excavate using the skills I learned last summer as a trenchmaster in training. This summer I will have the opportunity to lead first year students in on site excavation techniques and Etruscan history. I will be able to run my own area of excavation and at the end of the season, I will have a trenchbook with my name on it. This means that which contains evidence that I know how to run my own area of excavation, that I know how to properly document events and artifacts on site and in the lab.<\/p>\n

\"\"Arriving<\/p>\n

I\u2019m both excited and nervous for this summer. I am excited to return to a dig that I am familiar with where I am prepared to become a full staff member and teach first years about Etruscans. I am nervous because I have never been in a staff position where the people I am training are the same age and career level as I am. While there are a few incoming freshman and a few sophomores, most of the first year students will be rising seniors like me or will have just graduated from college. Despite my nerves, I am more than excited to return to Poggio Civitate and continue my archaeological training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
