TRANSIT
AND NW QUAD (Looking

<<prev | index 1

| The
transit is made from toothpicks, has both a
sighting barrel and a striding level cut from
tiny wire brads, and even a plumb bob (not
visible here – a thread with just the
tip of a 6-penny nail clipped off and glued to
end for the “bob!”) You can
see beneath the surface of the water-filled holes
(lower left) that there are cobbles on the bottom
of the basins! At upper right, is a pile of
whelk fragments excavators have run across during
midden removal, and temporarily discarded here.
The Unit remaining is being step-excavated: note
the tiny trowel, dustpan and whiskbroom. The
green paper clip is life size and for
scale.
