What is the most interesting excavation you have worked on?

For my part it was the ongoing Durrington Walls project. My part over a couple of seasons was to work on the geophysical survey and we had the good fortune to help discover some of the earliest known house floors in England. As far as the popular press are concerned we discovered the houses of the "builders of Stonehenge".

Probably Piddington Roman Villa in Northamptonshire, not that I was there
when they found it, but they found the skeleton of an apparently murdered
woman in an oven.

There should therefore be no remains of the house. Gingerbread doesn't
keep.

If you are in need of a citation of the excavation report of the witches house, just say so(in German).
