At school right now I'm helping with excavation of mammoth bones that were block lifted from a site in Northern California. They were lifted from the ground in a chunk of soil and brought back to our lab so that we could figure out the best way to excavate them, and practice our block-lifting techniques.
Preparing the plaster cast around the bones to secure them.
Excavating slowly through the clay with a scalpel.
More to come soon!
