2002 TRENCHES PC 19 AND 22 Justin Winkler, Field Supervisor Caitlin Vacanti, Assistant Field Supervisor Week 7 - Final Report: View of Trenches PC 19 and 22 from the northwest corner. This season involved a great deal of work and determination. None of this would have been possible without the participation and enthusiasm of many students. In particular, I wish to convey my thanks and appreciation to Candace Grove, Russell Moore, Aaron Bartels, and especially Caitlin Vacanti for their dedication, natural archaeological ability, and adept observations throughout the course of the season. One could not ask for a better crew. Excavation is virtually complete in this area of the site. Now that the units have been backfilled, we are left to contemplate the material record so that we may plan for next year's endeavor. One point is for certain though, Poggio Colla still possesses extraordinary archaeological potential and in years to come shall continue to produce groundbreaking discoveries.
