Had a field tech chew me out over my trowel technique at the Monte Verde site

He said I was scraping too deep and losing micro-stratigraphy. Switched to a finer touch and started finding charcoal flecks I'd been destroying. Anyone else get humbled by an older hand on-site?

60 year old woman showed me how to scrape like a feather at a Clovis site in Texas.
