This is an archaeological dig we went to close to Petra in the area of Wadi Moses. (There is a spring close by this area that the locals believe was one of the springs that Moses made with his staff. Its really not very big and I doubt it was.) They are digging at an Edomite site about the time of the kings. They are using brooms and dustpans for the most part so they can determine what is there. The girls wanted to use shovels, but our friends would not let them. They had a good time anyway.
