Fieldwork has been keeping me busy. Yesterday we found a Late (~2500 BC) sherd among our farmsteads (~1500 BC). It could be a remnant of older occupation, or it could be an intrusive find because a busy badger dug a lot of tunnels in this area 🦡😂

First evidence for human occupation of a lava tube in Arabia: The archaeology of Umm Jirsan Cave and its surroundings, northern Saudi Arabia

"The lava tube does not appear to have served as a permanent habitation location, but rather as a site that likely lay on herding routes and that allowed access to shade and water for passing herders and their animals. Prior to this, as well as during pastoral periods, the lava tube was likely also linked with hunting activities, which probably remained a cornerstone of local economies into the Bronze Age."
