#ExcavationDiary: Spring season opened. Finally started digging. Well, removing debris & vegetation to be exact. That must've been a winter.

#ExcavationDiary: Digging. Finding. Documenting. Museum officials. TV interview. Just the average 12-hour-excavation-shift.

#ExcavationDiary: Sorting through finds. Yet another day at the #GobekliTepe field office. http://t.co/rtWW6RVksW

#ExcavationDiary: Friday's usually 'day off' at the #excavation. Unless it's #Tourism Day & #archaeologists asked to present site of course.
December 7, 2024 at 12:26 AM
#ExcavationDiary: Lots of visitors on site today. Was almost more talking than digging.

#ExcavationDiary: Apparently, after some time of deep slumber, #GobekliTepe's wish tree seems back on duty. http://t.co/JI1VSV8raI

#ExcavationDiary: The fun in surfacing from #excavation trench, passing tourists, muttering & trying to look 'archaeologically'. :-p

#ExcavationDiary: Stones. A lot of stones today. I dare you to mention 'ancient collapse' to me for the rest of the evening. :-p

Ah, there it goes again: Electricity - off. Yeah, wanted to take a cold shower anyway. #MyAnatolianVillageLife #ExcavationDiary

#ExcavationDiary: Sometimes, passing a tourist group, it's hard to not blow cover and put right some guides' nonsense.

#ExcavationDiary: Weekend for the masses visiting the Tepe, still a workday for the archaeologists (+ new students). A sunny one actually.

Thanks to my friend Tarik, I am sipping my coffee in proper style now at the #excavation house. ;-) #ExcavationDiary http://t.co/odkEABWJhm

Yes, there's a souvenir shop now at the Tepe. ;-) #LastTweet #ExcavationDiary

#LifeTweet from the #excavation. Yes, the Tepe is WiFi-ed yet. #ExcavationDiary http://t.co/uNzUuOfRjx

#ExcavationDiary: Walls upon walls and rooms within rooms giving us a headache. Stratigraphy's somehow challenging in this trench.

#ExcavationDiary: And I didn't even mention yet all these floors. o.O #LastTweet

#ExcavationDiary: Workday's over, workmen & students gone. But some important visitors announced, so: Still at the Tepe. #WaitingForGodot
December 6, 2024 at 11:40 PM
#ExcavationDiary: So, the important visitors came, saw, and left again. So did we ... after 12 hours on site today.

#ExcavationDiary: Now, who's a lazy little #excavation dog? This sifted soil really seems cozy. ;-) http://t.co/OHVNU9MDMb

#ExcavationDiary: Storks circling above the Tepe again. Spring's finally here now for sure.
December 6, 2024 at 11:35 PM
#ExcavationDiary: Obviously not leaving as planned. Still quite some work to do on site, staying a few days longer. #NomadArchaeologist
