Your work schedule will be dependent upon conditions at the excavation site. A work day begins quite early so that you will normally be at the site at dawn. The schedule below, a fairly typical one for summer excavations in Israel, is the one followed at the Hazor Excavations . It should give you a general idea of what a representative day at a dig is like.
Most excavations schedule a rest period following lunch.
At Hazor pottery washing comes first then the rest period. The balance of the day usually consists of additional free time, excavation work, or lectures. Please Visit Our Site Often.
