One day the truth will come out...
and people wonder why archaeologists point out how pseudoarchaeology robs heritage from other people
obviously to this person, the older 'civilization' who built the sphinx and the pyramids weren't even Egyptians...

New video! The Geoarchaeology of the Sphinx with Bob Schneiker & Dan Fallu
A great chat that revolves around, but doesn't focus on the Sphinx erosion. Some cool visuals too, I'm fond of the older images of the Sphinx we included

When you hear people claim that the pyramids weren't tombs but granaries, you can always point out that these were what 4th dynasty Egyptian grain silos looked like (my photo, Ashmolean Museum)

Today's #DailyArchaeology is about two of my favs: music & animals
Notice the musical instrument that Apollo's holding on this cup from Delphi
It's a tortoise-shell lyre, similar to this ceramic one, imitating a tortoise-shell in The British Museum (bought from the infamous Elgin)

The idea that archaeology is all about 'discovery' is bullshit. Good archaeology is about accurate recording, analysis, and pattern recognition
Discovery comes down to chance, and many of the greatest discoveries were made by the worst archaeologists
