The dig site near my hometown looks completely different now than it did 15 years ago
I went back to visit the old Mission Solano site last weekend and barely recognized it. When I was a kid in 2008 they had just some stakes in the ground and a few guys with trowels. Now they've got a full lab tent with 3D scanners and a climate controlled storage shed. The dude running it said they found over 4,000 pottery fragments in the last two seasons alone. It's wild what proper funding and a dedicated crew can do in a decade and a half. Has anyone else gone back to a site they saw early on and been shocked by the progress?
