Why Vikings Unearthed's Horizontal Excavation?

For the structure atop the hill it will be useful to make horizontal excavations as they can show large areas of site to uncover structure plans or settlement layouts. Although we can see the structure with the naked eye, there may also be parts of it that we cannot see because of the damage the fires have caused. The horizontal excavation will be 3m x 9m, so that we may have an opportunity in finding hidden chambers or rooms underneath the ceremonial structures. It is very likely that we find human remains in the ceremonial structures because of sacrifice rituals they may have done. The remains will allow us to conduct DNA testing and determine things we could not from other objects.
Through Aerial Photography we can view surrounding areas without having to dig up places that contain no information about the Hopi. In some areas it is possible to see the differences in soil in crops and establishments. In the film, Vikings Unearthed, we were able to see archaeologist Sarah Parcack
My crew will consist of 30 people and we will spend about one year at the site and surrounding areas since answering these questions will take some time. A grant of $150,000 will allow us to stay and afford our excavating. Accompanying me will be a botanist to observe and understand if their agriculture really flourished, or if it was the reason as to why the Hopi left. A fire- archaeologist will be of great use to uncover if the fires were accidental or intentional. Fires have always been beneficial, whether they are used for hunting, rituals, cooking, or keeping warm. However, it may be that the fires were intentional because abode structures do not burn so easily, giving us a sense that they were used or destruction. They may also develop hypotheses from the origins of the prehistoric fires; fire-pits, discoloration of materials used to build the structures, or oxidized
