AN archaeological dig of Ned Kelly’s last stand at Glenrowan has divided the community.<BR /><P>
In May archaeologists and university students are expected to start work on the Ann Jones Inn site.<BR /></P><P>
The four-week dig will peel back about 1m of top soil on the block of land where the weatherboard inn stood at the time of the siege.<BR /></P><P>
It is expected to reveal the foundations of the inn and other artefacts.<BR /></P><P>
Professional archaeologist and project director Adam Ford from Dig International will work with La Trobe University to excavate the siege site by hand.<BR /></P><P>
“These archaeological excavations at the site of the former Glenrowan Inn, the location of the siege and last stand of the Kelly Gang in 1880 aim to uncover, record and conserve physical remains of the bloody siege which claimed the lives of three members of the Kelly gang and two hostages,” Mr Ford said.<BR /></P><P>
But the owner of one of the town’s tourist attractions says “they’ll find next to nothing”</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/09AEA522-4AFC-48F3-B1E5-B667948A0546/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
