Findings are brought to the
archaeology lab in Candler Hall.

points out that "just as books are
catalogued in libraries, the pottery,
rifles, or other artifacts unearthed
are assigned museum numbers. Other
universities are interested in such
findings and exchange information
and photographs with us.”
