How it begins

Archaeologists with fancy titles and letters after their name get all the best jobs. You, on the other hand, don't. You get to dig out of the shade, with the sun blazing down, deep in a trench that's nowhere near the long barrow you're supposed to be excavating. What are your chances of finding anything here?
