Also from our field manual:

The field school will last for six weeks. Fridays are off. Participants are allowed to leave on Thursday afternoon as soon as the field work is finished (at 2:00 pm) and have to be back on Friday night.

We will stay in a camp in the village of Tunis. From there we will go by car to the site of Medinet Watfa which is at a distance of approximately 5 km.
