Slide that demonstrates that mental models suffer when an archaeologist just uses photogrammetry. The slide text says: Model of mental model creation during photogrammetry
Relatively little interaction with complex mental processes that are key to interpretation in archaeology

Teaching Fieldwork & Digital Recording in our special topics module today. I'm still forever salty that one of the reviewers made us take this figure demonstrating the failings of photogrammetry for the creation of mental models out of our Aide Memoire paper. 🏺

Our third CISA seminar and the brilliance of Muna Dajani and how to speak of a river! Oh how she presenced that 9km of the Wadi in Gaza - people and heritage and ecologies!!
A big thank you to our amazing audience for their thoughtful questions and insightful discussion -

Yeah, it looks like they took some photos from Bikaner Camel Festival and made a fiction ethnography. Interesting, no?

A photo of a camel being led by men. The camel has intricate patterns cut into its hair.

Everyone once in a while I come across something that reminds me that we have no idea what things looked like in the past.

The negativity is a real mismatch to what is taught and perceived in our programmes at York. Jorvik came up in one of my PhD classes at UC Berkeley, and everyone was wildly positive. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

A photograph of smoke rising over Tehran, Iran.

The Israeli and US attack on Iran is morally repugnant. It is calculated only to benefit an elite of racist, Islamophobic warmongers. It will not benefit Iranians or ordinary people anywhere on earth.

We must build the grassroots capacity to interrupt the war machine or things will only get darker.
