We hired one for a private tour of the Vatican last year while COVID temporarily halted his team’s work in Jordan.

While walking through the museum he stopped at a [vase/urn on a pedestal](https://imgur.com/a/vAY9Jnz) so we could look at it. On the inscription below the find was his name. He stood there with a well earned grin and explained that he and his team found it a few of years before.
