Had a dig day in New Mexico where everything went sideways

We were working a Ancestral Pueblo site near Santa Fe and the backhoe hit a buried septic tank from the 1950s. Took us 3 days to clean up the mess and we lost a whole week of field season. Has anyone else dealt with modern contamination ruining a promising site?

Oh man, that's brutal. I mean, three days of cleaning up a septic mess sounds like an absolute nightmare.

@s Shane_fisher37 modern crap always finds a way to mess with the old cool stuff.
