Date, length, hook ok. No qpq needed. Earwig down. But would be good to rework the passage on the excavation a bit, it says the villa was found and later it was found and then it was found, it would be better if the flow of the different discoveries be clearer. Also good if some additional category added. --Soman (talk) 00:55, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Soman: Thank you for your feedback. I've changed the wording of the excavation history to clarify the difference between the younger and older villa being excavated. More categories have been added as well. TarheelBornBred (talk) 22:02, 7 September 2024 (UTC).[reply]
