  3. We had to work fast in the worst conditions I’ve ever encountered for archaeological fieldwork - the sea was coming in fast, with every high tide ripping away parts of the site, while wind-blown sand was simultaneously damaging it.

    We had to work fast in the worst conditions I’ve ever encountered for archaeological fieldwork - the sea was coming in fast, with every high tide ripping away parts of the site, while wind-blown sand was simultaneously damaging it. We were effectively being sand-blasted and the site was too, all while we were trying to delicately clean, study and document it, so it became a race against the elements. And, within 48 hours the entire site was destroyed.
