Polecam petycję o podniesienie poziomu finansowania nauki w Polsce do poz. 3% PKB. To się wydaje nie tak dużo, ale może mieć ogromny wpływ na przyszłość (i przeszłość)

3% dla nauki, 100% dla Polski

goofing around with #QGIS and #Inkscape over changing range of occupation of the archaeological site.
Do you like this kind of viz, or prefer simple 2d plans, with clear north and dimensions?

Our new geomagnetic study of the early Eneolithic fortified site in Bronocice, S PL is available. The whole vol. 53 of Documenta Praehistorica journal seems to be interesting!

Working on a side project on #stone #axe s from old excavations, I have found this specimen of partially destroyed (and I think reworked) axe head. I have never seen these kinds of markings: grooved line approx. on the axis, diagonal lines and rubbing/roughening in the area where shaft-hole was drilled. No other specimen has this kind of stuff. Can it be a preparation/measurements that failed grind of?

@joeroe I think what is cool about this paper is it shows how unique early Holocene biomes are, and therefore it is mostly #Mesolithic adaptations I have in mind now. But you are right, that it changes the perception of Neolithic niche creation

Tracking back such a big population (1 in 200 of all men) to one relatively recent lineage always was sus to me.
my confirmation bias is very happy about the results this study.

Today I finally visited an exhibition about the Early Bronze Age fortified settlement in Maszkowice, S Poland, which is supposedly the northernmost example of (proto)cyplopean type defence structure. It is amazing site, and I love how it was researched through the last 15 or so years.

@basepair Inkscape (or CorelDraw/Illustrator if they happen to be on the same computer as I do).
I was about to press InDesign/Scribus option for that, but I think it makes a difference for some people, so it went as "other".

Once I did an online html version "clickable" by qr, with some panel graphics turned to animation (I wanted to try quarto/RStudio). Some people liked it, but I'm afraid in general it was opposite to the #betterposter ^^"

Hello fellow mastodons, especially past-oriented ones! I work with neolithic stuff, trying to make some sense of it for me and ideally for others. So to give it a try: have anyone here used https://d-place.org/ before, for "ethongraphic analogy" seeking? I'm looking into eneolithc housing structures in Poland for my PhD, and most of the interpretations go to "ehtnographical examples" anyway, so why not use all thats available in the topic? #archaeology #anthropology #neolithic #archaeodon
