Raphaël Seyfried(EN below) 🇫🇷 Retour d'expédition archéologique en Albanie. Le campement des fouilles se situe à 700 mètres d'altitude dans la région de Koman. Levé à 4h30 du matin pour éviter les canicules à plus de 40°. Au programme : jardinage de cailloux, coloriage, pétules et autres précieux matériels archéologiques sont extraits des tombeaux.
Mon diplôme d'Architecture du Paysage et d'Urbanisme de Genève c'était déroulé sur un autre site archéologique, à Vlöre, dans le sud du pays en 2012. Par la suite, j'ai suivi l'équipe d'archéologues durant 3 années en tant que dessinateur, en plus de mon travail en bureau d'architecture.
Voilà 10 ans que je n'étais pas revenu ici, et autant vous dire que, malgré le peu d'activités extra-scolaire ; en effet, il n'y a ni poney, ni piscine en activités proposée l'après-midi ! Cette mission de fouilles fut un plaisir.
🇬🇧 Back from an archaeological expedition in Albania. The excavation camp is located at an altitude of 700 metres in the Koman region. Up at 4:30 a.m. to avoid the 40° heatwave. On the program: pebble gardening, coloring, petules and other precious archaeological materials are extracted from the tombs.
It's been 10 years since I haven't been back here, and I can tell you that, despite the lack of extra-activities - indeed, there's no pony or swimming pool on offer in the afternoons!

New findings in #Nature and phys.org?
I'm neither an #archeologist, nor an engineer, but assuming that the the peer-reviewed article on phys.org does not omit any central aspects of the study in #Nature, it seems 👉rather narrow-minded in geographic and historic scope.👈

Discovery of a unique drainage and irrigation system that gave way to the 'Neolithic Revolution' in the Amazon
A pre-Columbian society in the Amazon developed a sophisticated agricultural engineering system that allowed them to produce maize throughout the year, according to a discovery by a team of researchers from the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology (ICTA-UAB) and the Department of Prehistory at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, (Spain); the Universities of Exeter, Nottingham, Oxford, Reading and Southampton (UK); the University of São Paulo (Brazil) and Bolivian collaborators.
getmischI found this post about mastodon on Mastodon(!) Mastodon were cousins to elephants & wooly mammouth, and lived among hoo-mans 13K years ago (relatively recently). NY state is home to 150 mastodon fossil discoveries, w/ 1/3 in Orange County, where these teeth etc were found.

But it's quite depressing
A #Ukrainian digging a #trench somewhere on the #frontlines of the #UkraineWar, they find a rusty #Soviet PPSh-41, a submachine #gun, a #WW2 #relic
Probably from another trench, dug in the same spot, by another Ukrainian, 80 years ago

So much suffering
All of it pointless stupid folly of malicious vain men
Jamez Barrett 🜃 ॐ ⒶYellowmead stone circle near Sheepstor in Devon, England is a concentric Bronze Age stone circle consisting of four stone rings set into each other. The largest is 20 meters wide and the smallest 6 meters. It is located on Yellowmead Down.
The circles once surrounded a burial mound, although this is now barely visible. To the south-west some possible rows of stones branch off, crossed by a post-medieval leat that once served a nearby tin works.
The site was excavated and restored by Rev. H Breton in 1921. In 2008, geophysical surveys and a small excavation were carried out to determine if the 1921 restoration had been done accurately (it was) and to find out if they were buried additional elements in the peat. Fallen stones were found in line with some of the stone rows, suggesting that further features may lie downstream below the slope.

"American #archeologist dies after #Viking ship replica capsizes off #Norway"
Those who wielded #AncientTechnology were masters but many died pushing the edge of discovery. So a sad modern coda
"Thrilled to be a part of this crew, fearlessly embarking on this Nordic voyage on a Viking ship replica across the North Sea, pushing through physical and mental limits to sail into history"
- Karla Dana, 29
I hope she is in #Valhalla on the greatest of discovery
5000 years ago, the Neolithic people of Dartmoor cut this 27 feet high standing stone from granite where The Oxenham Arms is now located.
The pub was built around it when it was a monastery around 800 years ago, the stone goes down into the cellar & up into the room above.
