From Aug 2006 - Nov 2013 WeDig provided a live forum for diggers & fans of Vindolanda. It has now been mothballed and will be maintained as a live archive.

Here you will find preserved 7 years of conversation, photos, & knowledge about a site many people love. Vindolanda gets under the skin. (Figuratively and literally as a volunteer excavator!) It's a place you remember, filled with people you remember!

Thanks for 7 great years!

Seeking help on Justin's Area B excavations

Hey all.

Well the granary excavations were pretty clear-cut. It was easy for an armchair archie-wannabe like me to put together the story. But I'm having trouble with Justin's area, Area B. The pictures got jumbled in the server migration, so I can't compare posts to pictures. And the archaeology is tougher there for a layman to figure out anyway, being all squished together.

It seems like a great story -- the edge of the vicus, new major roadways, industry, connection to earlier digs, etc. But I'm out of my depths in trying to tell it.

So, a request for help. If anyone has pictures and some confidence about what they show, when they were taken, etc., please post 'em! You can either post in the public forums, or feel free to e-mail or private-message me. The goal is to get enough together to create something like the granary postings.

Also, if there's anybody who knows the whole story of Justin's '08 dig and wants to give it a go, let me know. (This obviously includes you too Justin!) I'd be happy to give access to that forum so you can write it up.
