For UK based Arches projects with an interest in the Middle East, this might be 
a good funding opportunity.

All good wishes,

Ed

[Arches] Re: Signing in

[Edmund Lee]

Hi David, and welcome to the Arches community!

It's good to hear that Arches is being adopted at Jersey Heritage. Maybe 
you could post a bit more about the particular issues arising with that 
installation? I'm sure your experience will be useful to other Arches sites.

The PhD sounds fascinating. Do you see a potential use for Arches in 
documenting your research? Animal husbandry sites? Collection 
documentation? Prehistoric transhumance routeways?

All the best

Ed
