Understand an archaeological project? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dig

I believe this is a double definition.

'understand' is the first definition.
(digging is a kind of understanding)

'an archaeological project?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for dig that I've seen before include "Understand" , "Site of an archeological exploration" , "A brief archaeological excavation" , "Delve" , "Briefly, an archaeological excavation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
