Outside of our school\u00a0 there is an Archeological dig happening because the new distillery is going up there and they need to check for ancient remains before they can build. When they are digging they are trying to find different colours of ground and put flags on that spot that was a different color.\u00a0 This tells them something was there, like a post.<\/p>\n
A few people have come over to Islay to come and do this Archeological dig. They have been here for a while digging up mostly every day for a few weeks. There have been quite a lot of things they have found. We met with them in the playground and saw all the things that they had found like bits of pottery and flint. They were digging and they found lots of big rocks in the ground in a circle.\u00a0 Turns out there was a Round House underneath the ground, right next to our school, which is really exciting!\u00a0 They know this because there is evidence of posts from a building and a ditch and a circle of stones to mark out the site.<\/p>\n
