What attracted Adam to Extent?

Adam’s Career Highlights
Excavating in Laos at Wat Ban Vieng and then the Plain of Jars. I was fortunate enough to participate in the ANU excavation at ‘Site One’ at the Plain of Jars after a month of excavating at Wat Ban Vieng. Excavating at an archaeological site that is being nominated on the World Heritage List was like a dream come true.
