So there I was, minding my own business when the Ronald Reagan Library gave me a call and asked me to check out their exhibit on the Dead Sea Scrolls! Did they want me because I am a world-renowned archaeologist, or because I’m an archaeologist who lives only 10 minutes away? Either way, it was great.

Following excavation at Weathertop (Amon Sûl), a range of post-excavation analyses was undertaken to better understand the site’s history and use. Archaeobotanical analysis revealed evidence of plant remains, shedding light on past diets and the environment surrounding the tower. Illustrations of key artefacts and features were produced to aid in visual interpretation and documentation. Find processing involved the cleaning, cataloguing, and detailed recording of artefacts, including pottery, tools, and weapons. Additionally, flotation techniques were employed to recover small organic remains, such as seeds and charcoal, offering further insight into the site’s past occupation and use.

TLDR: Tilly and Ash discuss the post-excavation analysis of their six week dig on Weathertop!
