[D]uring the mid-nineteenth century, William Hamilton described it as the best preserved ancient city he had ever seen. Toward the end of that century, Sagalassos and its theater became famous among students of classical antiquity... [A] British-Belgian team led by Stephen Mitchell started surveying the site in 1985. Since 1990, Sagalassos has become a large-scale, interdisciplinary excavation of the Catholic University of Leuven, directed by Marc Waelkens.

The site appears to be open for students who want to dig. How much in your checking account? ;')

I misunderstood. But if one were to want to help excavate a site...

I think I would prefer to dig for dinosaurs, closer in stuff.

But the ancient dwellings at Mesa Verde are very interesting also.
