Back from the summer holidays. This week I'm planning my teaching in the fall semester and preparing my presentation for EAA 2023.

... Also, still waiting for permissions to sample for ZooMS.

However, coming back to the first screenshot, what is perhaps even more interesting - and frankly concerning - is the fact that searches on archaeology seems to be on the decline. I wonder what drives that?

Seems like the interest spiked just before christmas of ‘10. Looking up the wiki of events in archaeology (yes, that is a real page) doesn’t reveal any significant events just before christmas - or in December for that matter. Curiouser and curiouser.

If any of you are still on Twitter (and know Danish - or ambitious enough to Google Translate a bunch of tweets) I'm managing the @KU_forskeren account this week.

So if you're interested in zooarcheology, textile archaeology and biomolecular archaeology you might be in for a treat.

I'll be spending the rest of the week tweeting about my PhD project on Viking Age sheep husbandry and wool production.

Eske and I went for our first hike in 2023 and suddenly we met a bunch of Spælsau sheep. immediately I started thinking about sampling them for my PhD...
