💼 What the programme involves
At the beginning of the excavation, the removal of the top layer of humus is done by hand, which is of course not too hard, but still only physical work (spade, shovel, pick, wheelbarrow). Once we reach the archaeological strata - in our case we have to reckon with graves - the skeletons are excavated and prepared for documentation. This requires a much more detailed fine breakdown with small tools (spatula, charcoal shovel, brush, etc.). After documentation, the frames are picked up and packaged. The packaging is done in paper bags and boxes according to the specified order.
Documentation: We photograph and draw the archaeological phenomena (Layers, pits, structures, graves, etc. formed as a result of human activity before 1711) to be discovered, and we also make photo 3D documentation about them, all of which can be done by volunteers under the supervision of specialists. In geodetic surveys, they can only test themselves, for which we will use a measuring station and GNSS.
