These are 'five main occupations' at digs in the mediterranean area - at least, when I was there!
1) Endless sweeping, to keep surfaces & finds visible.
2) Removing modern fill, so that the nature of the soil or the shape of the 'historic floor' becomes visible.
4) Hiding from the boss...ahum! I mean discussing finds, soil shapes and everything else that's important. ;-)
5) More digging with small tools.

The short film The Roman Frontier in Jordan is part of the multimedia DVD-project Frontiers of the Roman Empire. The aims of the film are to show fascinating pictures from the Roman frontier in the Middle East and to connect people from different countries through their common history and archaeology.

Archaeological remains like Qasr Bshir, Jerash and Azraq clearly demonstrate the importance of the Eastern provinces for Rome. And today? His Royal Highness Prince Hassan bin Thalal is promoting the history and archaeology of his country. And in this context we can recognise that Roman archaeology in particular demonstrates that Western Europe and the Arabic world have common roots.
