ABSTRACT

Breakfast was delayed until eight o’clock after the mishap with the bus, so we were late returning to the Ox River site. The ground was wet, but not so soggy we couldn’t work. We began to set up a new grid between the two house groups. The grid continued with a transect through the middle of the second group of houses. We had become a well-oiled team, and we sat down to lunch with a feeling of accomplishment. The jeep driver had left us there, but returned with a stack of steamy baskets that contained rice, two vegetable dishes and one dish with chicken.
