Corn wasn"t a thing until 4100 years ago. A majority of an archaeologist"s job is to excavate areas that undergo construction. Currently he is working at the sewage plant to excavate the land so they could put in additional tanks. Variety of tools (heavy duty stuff) to excavate. They had storage pits for the community and not the singular family. Found/planted corn= found out the rabbit problems. Created a representative design of what it could have looked like.
