Abstract
WHEN an archaeologist requires to record the stratification in the walls of a trench or cutting he usually does so by having drawings and photographs made. These may be studied at leisure but are, at best, merely reminders of the appearance of the original because they are one stage of interpretation away from it. Detailed below is a method by which the actual section can be transferred and then transported to workshop or study where photographs and drawings may be made in familiar and less cramped surroundings. In trenches where drawing is impracticable for lack of space this method could prove invaluable.
