No but they have CVs and can easily work it out.
Something someone else said which seems more likely is that due to my academic record, skills in and out of archaeology and experience I could be perceived as a threat to someone's job. Not something I had thought of but the more I think about it the more it makes sense. I would expect the company in question to take up the references and ask about my conduct and team ethics on site.
I thought this would be a gimme, but luckily I have a shorter term contract which I am enjoying, otherwise I really would have to consider my future. I just want a straight answer from these people, I have been around long enough to know pretty easily when people are not being straight.
