Plus TV interviews Dr. Jaime Awe about the dig.  "On Saturday, while an excavator was digging down Birds Avenue, as part of improving the infrastructure for drainages, they came across some broken ceramics. The Department of Archeology was then called and we got a team to come out here and since then we have found several ceramics vessels and also the remains of one adult male individual. The site is part of a small settlement that used to be a part of Cahal Pech and we know that this dates sometime before the birth of Jesus Christ."
