In a world dominated by AI & disinformation, I expect we will see a major pendulum swing culturally. People will crave authenticity and reality over deep fakes and conspiracist lies I'm here for it, sharing #RealArchaeology

How cool is #RealArchaeology? 🏺 Well, it's "we can track down oral human & environmental #DNA from #Neolithic birch #tar which had been chewed thousands of years ago, telling us about Stone Age diet & what this tar was used for" cool. 🙌 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Firing the natural colored clays to use for slips did almost as expected.
The gray glauconite wasn't neutral. It fired tan to pinkish tan. The ferromanganese (brown ochre) mixed with the glauconite fired brown. The red & the white are two I've used for slips many times.
I figured the ferromanganese would turn out brown & am ecstatic that it did. Somewhat disappointed that the glauconite didn't stay gray, but tan is useable. #ceramics #archaeology #RealArchaeology

Definitely a slight luster change from the unmodified (1) to the thermally altered (2-4) grainy red jasper. Thermal alteration (heat treating) can result in:
a) No change
b) Change in color, not luster
c) Change in luster, not color
d) Change in both color & luster -

When we think about archaeologists in stories, it's usually the brave adventurer seeking long-lost worlds... but this can be culturally problematic today. That doesn't mean there's no stories to tell about things left behind. 🧵⬇️

Weeden Island Incised (ca. 700-1000 CE) design on a jar in Willey 1949 (Fig. 36c) & a similar design on our reproduction Weeden Island Incised restricted orifice jar. The apple-shaped jar form is common at several Weeden Island sites in Florida. #ceramics #archaeology #RealArchaeology

When I see "mysterious" I wonder if someone is ignorant or if someone is selling tours. One of the major promoters of the Paracas skulls as mystery is a tours salesman and YouTube monetizer.
No way do I click this sort of clickbait link. I can't even keep up with the #RealArchaeology.

This also can be done for Classic sites, like Roman or Greek, or even late historic sites, where there is a standardization of most vessel sizes & shapes. #ceramics #archaeology #anthropology #RealArchaeology

By looking at MNV (Minimum Number of Vessels) from distinct designs, rim sizes, vessel type, & sherd counts & weights, we can somewhat estimate site population size & with estimated breakage rates, the length of indigenous occupation at a site. #ceramics #archaeology #anthropology #RealArchaeology
