Time Team - Sunday 6th June
 Page 1/4
The following photographs were taken while the Time Team were excavating the Wemyss Caves.

Some photographs may not be as sharp as I would like, as some of the photographs were taken in low light situations. I could not use flash (all the time) as filming was taking place or because of low light and people moved or I could not hold the camera steady!

The images that follow give a flavour of the day, they record some of the activities on the day. Some pictures are exclusive and will more than likely not be seen anywhere else.

The following photo's show the excavation and

doing and to explain what they had found and any importance.
