From Digging In The Southwest by Ann Axtell Morris:
"If the lowly potsherd is the plum in stratigraphic cake, the burials of human beings ought to be called the nuggets in archaeological gravel."
This is from a used book I bought about 25 years ago and I am reading it again during this lockdown. It has reminded me of burials at Tarradale and the caves at Rosemarkie. A very entertaining book and highly recommended if you should find a copy. She also wrote "Digging in Yucatan".
