Baby's First Fieldwork [Tuesday, Period 3]
Aphra had told the students to meet her out by the back of the dorms, where they'd find a marked off grid that looked a little like a sandpit. If by a little you meant a lot. There was also a table with a toolkit laid out for each student.
"Hey, kids!" Aphra definitely seemed cheerful. "If we haven't had class together before, I'm Doctor Aphra and you're going to be learning how to be proper real world archeologists, on actual digs and everything, but since I'd like to keep what my reputation intact, first you're going to learn how to properly act on a proper dig. With delicacy and care." How they were going to learn that from Aphra of all people...
"This here is your dig site, which I've seeded with valuable cultural artifacts." It was mostly bottle caps and assorted knick-knacks, they'd need a couple of centuries to become valuable cultural artifacts. "Your job is to find something, then introduce yourself to the class and explain what you've found. Remember, if you don't know what something actually is, the words 'ritual object' are your friend."

She hadn't realised there was a very good chance Peridot was being sincere.
