Inizia oggi la quinta campagna di scavi a Badia Pozzeveri.Dopo gli straordinari risultati della scorsa estate, le ricerche riprendono da dove si sono fermate, per approfondire la conoscenza dei livelli archeologici dell'abbazia medievale ed esplorare i contesti cimiteriali attorno alla chiesa di San Pietro. Terminate le indagini delle aree 1000 e 4000, poste rispettivamente in prospicienza dell'abside e del chiostro, gli scavi andranno ad investire i seguenti saggi:
A domani per i nuovi aggiornamenti!
Today we finished cleaning Area 3000, which is located along the western border of the standing church. After cleaning the area, we sprinkled water on top, in order to see variations in the soil. This revealed three possible graves. We began excavating the three possible graves. In the northern sector of Area 3000 Section B near the trench, we discovered a grave that contained a disarticulated mandible, skull fragments, and long bones, which indicates this grave is a reduction. In the southeastern sector of section B, we found a mandible and a full right arm that appears to have caved in to the body. Located slightly above, we also found a pelvis we believe to be part of another body. In the southwestern sector of section B, we located the torso, pelvis, upper limbs and cranium of an individual, however the grave appears to be overlapping with other individuals. We found teeth and part of a cranium from another individual. Tomorrow we will continue excavating these graves.
