Not very snipery, but a great friend of mine was on this expedition as a battlefield archaeologist. The results and finds have finally been made public.

I thought that folks in the "Vintage" crowd would enjoy this.

As I am currently working on my masters thesis on T.E. Lawrence, this is pretty timely!!

Chilling how well the site was preserved.

Also intrigued how well Peter O'toole resembled T.E. Lawrence.
