Despite massive rationalizations
and desperate protestations
there can be little doubt
that time is running out..When grading our terra stewardship
it will be the determination
of alien #archeologists
that the species in charge really blew it..Ruining one cool little planet
with their fatal arrogance
and unrelenting greed -
These #Roman #dodecahedrons, made of a copper alloy, dating to the 3rd century CE, are pretty interesting. Apparently, nobody knows what they're for, and more than 100 have been discovered in various Roman sites. While not standardized, they're all roughly the size of a grapefruit. #Archeologists suspect they're #religiousArtifacts given the prevalence of superstition, but I think they're used to play a game. Something like #bocce, maybe. What do you think?

Dear #DigitalHumanist ,
What is your favorit tool for annotating photos? It is for a group of #linguist/ #archeologists / #historian that gather photos of old inscriptions on stones. They want to transcribe and write all type of metadata about the images.
#Tropy looks nice and is probably close to what they want. A shame it does not support #xml though, and has no #cloud solution. #DH #DigitalHumanities #humanitésnumériques #humanitenumeriques

#Archeologists in Norway found an arrow that was likely trapped in ice for 4,000 years
by Dustin Jones, September 6, 2023
"Archeologists in Norway discovered an arrow shaft that appears to be from the #StoneAge, meaning it is approximately 4,000 years old.
"The discovery was made on the side of #MountLauvhøe, which stands at just over 6,500 feet in Norway's Lom Municipality. Archeologists had found arrows from the Iron and Middle ages when they last surveyed the area in 2017. However, this arrow shaft was found after ice at the site melted away in recent years, according to Lars Holger Pilø, co-director Secrets of the Ice, part of Norway's Department of Cultural Heritage.
"He said the discovery predates earlier finds by more than 2,000 years, which adds a lot more "time depth" to the site. Researchers can determine the age of the artifact by its shape, but will submit a sample of the wood for carbon dating once the field season is over."

Let's look on Google Earth. Oh wow... it's something. Better #coordinates for this random #desert item is at 39.22389,85.6197 -- any #Xinjiang #China #archeologists around here? LOL.

@my_actual_brain I would only be useful to today's #archeologists. I would try to record as much as I can of what I learn of the #culture #language written #alphabet crafts, and so on. Then I would need to find a safe place where to put my recordings, well preserved in order to be still legible thousands of years in the future. Wouldn't it be fascinating, if someone would be able to explain what really happened to #atlantis for example, or tell how the #pyramids were built?

#Neolithic 7,000 Year Old #Road Still In Better Shape Than Your Local Streets
#Archeologists found a road that dates all the way back to 4,900 BC, and it looks nicer than the street I live on.The road — and several other artifacts like flint blades, stone axes and fragments of millstones — actually belonged to a lost #maritime culture known as the Hvar. They occupied the area during the Neolithic Era. https://jalopnik.com/archaeologists-discover-7000-year-old-road-in-croatia-1850419064 -
#Archeologists have uncovered a 3000 year old #bakery in #Armenia - the massive building was used for 200 years before it burned down!
The people who used it had no written language & we know nothing about them.

Following the results of two digs late last year, the #NationalCapitalCommission is planning another #archaeological dig in a section of #LeBretonFlats — potential site of a new #NHL arena — this summer, seeking more #artifacts related to #19thcentury #Bytown .
Two #HistoricalSites were #investigated in Nov. on the north side of Albert St between Preston St & City Centre Ave, commission #archaeologist Monica Maika said in a statement. -
Work begins in May when a team from #WashingtonStateUniversity uses #GroundPenetrating #radar to map site, figure out which spots merit #investigation & which are possible #BurialSites .
#Archeologists , #UVic #students & #Indigenous #youth will look for #evidence of #FishTraps , #SeaGardens , etc before examining 3 sites: #AgateLanePark , #McMorranPark , #CordovaBayPark & piece of land on Waters Edge Road.

#Archeologists have decoded the markings on 20,000-year-old cave paintings created by Ice Age hunter-gatherers. The results show that early humans used #writing to convey information far earlier than researchers previously believed.

More than 500 years ago in the midwestern #Guatemalan highlands, #Maya people bought and sold goods with far less oversight from their rulers than many #archeologists previously thought.

Apropos of nothing: I’m always amazed that #archeologists can distinguish important artifacts from junk.

#Archeologists found other examples over the years, such as Shanidar 1, a 50 yo amputated #neanderthal (45 000 BCE), with low vision and other injuries and yet reached this venerable age (in actual Irak).

I have seen a few people touting #AncientApocalypse today, please don't. It is absolute nonsense!
It is made by a total grifter who should never have been given a soapbox. It's in the same rubbish category as #AncientAliens -- pure and utter rubbish.
It is an insult to all the amazing #archeologists out there and all the amazing work they do with #historians
Graham Hancock is an absolute scammer!
