Baby's First Fieldwork [Tuesday, Period 3]
Aphra's class was meeting in an ordinary classroom this week, possibly because Aphra had been distracted with the fish and forgotten to organise something.
She reached into her satchel and placed the fish in pride of place on the desk.
Okay, maybe not so much possibly as definitely.
"You've had a taste of proper digs and describing what you find, so you've probably noticed that it's often not very interesting. But sometimes you get hold of something really great, something that helps you unlock the mysteries of a whole ancient civilisation, or even better introduces entirely new ones, because that last can result in a career's worth of funding." No small thing in academia.
Aphra patted the fish, which obligingly spat out streamers and started blasting music again. "So pretend you just found this guy, what kind of questions might it answer, or bring up?"
