<h1><a name="Tools">Knowing your tools</a></h1>
Every archaeologist has a plethora of tools at their disposal, but here's the important ones:<br>
<list>
<li><b>Picks, pickaxes and brushes</b> - don't underestimate the the smallest or largest in your arsenal, each one clears a different amount
of the rockface so each one has a use.</li>
<li><b>Measuring tape</b> - don't leave home without it, you can use it to measure the depth a rock face has been excavated to.</li>
<li><b>GPS locater</b> - knowing where you are is the first step to not be lost.</li>
<li><b>Core sampler</b> - use this to take core samples from rock faces, which you can then run to the lab for analysis.</li>
<li><b>Depth scanner</b> - uses x-ray diffraction to locate anomalous densities in rock, indicating archaeological deposits or mineral veins.
Comes with a handy reference log containing co-ordinates and time of each scan.</li>
<li><b>Alden-Saraspova counter</b> - uses a patented application of Fourier Transform analysis to determine the difference between background and
exotic radiation. Use it to determine how far you are from anomalous energy sources.</li>
<li><b>Radio beacon locater</b> - leave a beacon at an item of interest, then track it down later with this handy gadget. Watch for interference from other
devices though.</li>
<li><b>Flashlight or portable light source</b> - Self explanatory, I hope.</li>
<li><b>Environmental safety gear</b> - This one's dependant on the environment you're working in, but enclosed footwear and pack of internals
could save your life.</li>
<li><b>Anomaly safety gear</b> - A biosealed and catalysis-resistant suit along with eye shielding, tinted hood and non-reactive disposable gloves are
the best kind of protection you can hope for from the errors our forbears may have unleashed.</li>
<li><b>Personal defence weapon</b> - Never know what you'll find on the dig: pirates, natives, ancient guardians, carnivorous wildlife...
it pays in blood to be prepared.</li>

<h1><a name="Find">Finding the dig</a></h1>
Wouldn't be an archaeologist without their dig, but everyone has to start somewhere. Here's a basic procedure I go through when cataloguing a new planet:<br>
<list>
<li><b>Get in touch with the locals</b> (in particular geologists, miners and farmers) - Never know what's been turned up by accident, then left to
gather dust on a shelf.</li>
<li><b>Check the obvious areas first</b> - even if you're pressed for time, these ones are the generally easiest to search, and the most likely targets
of your rivals.</li>
<li><b>Do some prospecting</b> - the earth mother isn't in the habit of displaying her secrets to the world (although sometimes you get lucky).
Drop a shaft and clear away a bit of surface rock here and there, you never know what might be lurking below the surface.</li>
<li><b>Tips on unearthing a deposit</b> - How do you know when you're golden? Look for telltale white strata that looks strange or out of place, or if
something has broken under your pick while you're digging. Your depth scanner is your best friend, but even it can't distinguish between
ordinary minerals and ancient leavings, if in doubt then err on the side of caution.</li>

You've found some unusual strata, but it's not all peaches from here. No archaeologist ever managed to pull a bone from the earth without doing thorough
chemical analysis on every two meters of rock face nearby.<br>
<list>
<li><b>Take core samples</b> - Grab a rock core for every 4m^2.</li>
<li><b>Clear around any potential finds</b> - Clear away ordinary rock, leaving your prizes reachable in a clearly marked area.</li>
<li><b>Haul off excess rock</b> - It's easy for a dig to get cluttered, and a neat archaeologist is a successful archaeologist.</li>
<li><b>Don't be afraid to be cautious</b> - It's slower sometimes, but the extra time will be worth the payoff when you find an Exolitic relic.</li>

It's perhaps one of the most exciting times to be alive, with the recent breakthroughs in understanding and categorisation of things we may one day no longer call
'anomalies,' but rather 'infrequent or rare occurrences of certain celestial weather or phenomena.' Perhaps a little more long winded, but no less eloquent all the
same! Why, look at the strides we're making in piercing the walls of bluespace or our steadily improving ability to clarify and stabilise subspace emissions; it's
certainly an exciting time to be alive. For the moment the Hydrolian hasn't seen two spatial anomalies alike but the day will come and it is soon, I can feel it.

Due to exigent properties of that dimension, transphasing those particles capable of existing in bluespace with high stability levels has the effect of bringing
