    Data Curation…Crisis? Part 2 - Ep 215

    Recent discussions with colleagues and the February 2024 issue of Advances in Archaeological Practice had Paul thinking about what we do with our digital data. This is an evergreen topic, and one that we've touched on before, but is always good to revisit.

    Reconstructing a Maritime Past: Interview with Matthew Harpster - Ep 214

    Reconstructing a Maritime Past: Interview with Matthew Harpster - Ep 214

    This week we interview Dr. Matthew Harpster about his research using polygons to measure the density of maritime activity in the ancient Mediterranean Sea. He was a guest on the show back in 2020, and 4 years later he returns to discuss his new book that reveals patterns in ancient maritime activity and creates a narrative for this activity based on archaeological data from the sea floor.

    How Technological Innovation Can Drive Greater Accessibility and Inclusivity in Archaeology - Ep 212

    How Technological Innovation Can Drive Greater Accessibility and Inclusivity in Archaeology - Ep 212

    Archaeology is always seen as a field pursuit and for the most part, it is. However the interpretations of archaeology should be accessible to all. Our guests today, Dr. Alessandro Sebastiani and Dr. Laura Morabito presented their thoughts on accessibility in archaeology at the World Archaeology Summit in Alula, Saudi Arabia in September 2023. They discuss things like 3D reconstruction and VR as tools to bring people to archaeological sites and research without physically bringing them there.
