Excellent writeup on this dig-terrible circumstances, but it looks like the French are doing a good job with sound science and the dignity this deserves. I saw on the French archaeology parent site there was at least one picture of work in progress-a technician with a cooler and water bottle, small trowel, etc and what appeared to be a body upright on a bunk.
Is anyone aware of more photos that may be available of this dig?
And yes, I agree that the "unidentified item" is a pouch with coins, but someone posited elsewhere those might be fuses of some kind?
