So, our long journey to Paraguay begins. I may or may not share some thoughts and reflections here on the project.
But for now: the team is motivated for fieldwork and wonderful colleagues waiting for us at the other side of the globe.
I don't think this is getting the coverage it needs. Scottish government to require passivhaus standard for all new build homes. This is big. Really big. Growing out of lessons from the 70's oil crisis. Passivhaus buildings use very little energy to heat, or to cool. We've known how to do this for decades. It's gross negligence from all western governments that the same is not true of all new builds in the developed world.
Next year's autumn I may do a last fieldwork project at my job II:
Going back to cc camp Asbach for an excavation or survey another completely forgotten camp?
(Student involvement opportunities included)
Thinking about creating an archaeological seminar on cataloging and analysing material culture of 19.-21. century sites for the next semester!
A bit on methodology, classification and data management, and a look at theory on commodification, mass production and waste.
