Water at Ancient Sites – Archaeology Studio 156

In Greek mythology, a little owl represents or accompanies Athena and has become known as a symbol of knowledge and wisdom attesting to the staying power of the Olympians. The whispers of Athena's legacy are everywhere.

The symbology of the owl has often inspired my own journey. The ability to see through the darkness of life and find knowledge is a potent totem.

@gratefulwolf @JanPV @thesweetcheat -- was preparing to offer the same interpretation = "lazy bed"" formation, composed of lines of drainage troughs between elongated planting mounds, made by only slight excavation/clearing of the troughs and slight mounding of the planting lines, while using the natural slope for the drainage

In the Archaeological record, pottery handles were popular in many parts of the world, yet somehow they were extremely rare or absent in some cases.
