Field Manual
This is the Villa Magna Project Manual. It is a handbook for our team, spelling out our method and procedure both on the dig and off. It is intended to be a resource for team members (what was that phone number? who is in charge of that?) and a reference for excavation techniques and the standards we have adopted for this excavation.
