What’s his fault? What isn’t… starting with spelling our field “archeology”, without the second a.

Things you need for archaeology
Not a lot, but you have to have them. Let’s see!
A Tetanus vaccination. You just have to. Things are really, really dirty and you just need to have the protection
A hat. Skin cancer prevention!
Trowel. Seriously. Get your own. It will shape and wear to your usage of it, making it the most comfortable to you only. And you just need it. It’s so useful
Good shoes/orthopedic soles. If you don’t have them already, go look for them. If you already have troubled feet, it prevents worse or fixes problems. If you don’t it’s the only thing that will prevent it for you
Always keep a roll of toilet paper in your bag/car. You’ll see. You always end up needing one

Just saw an advert for a Discovery channel program called "Blowing up History."
Heinrich Schliemann, get back in your cold dark grave!

The argument that the British musuem should hold onto artifacts because they're more capable of taking care of then is one that instantly disintegrates the second you read the history of the Parthenon Marbles
#seriously#they BATHED THEM IN ACID to prepare for making plaster casts#then cleaned them with clay abrasive#it makes me want to kill many victorians#like these are why there's no trace of color on the marbles#they were painted and had traces but they were destroyed by THE FUCKING ACID#classics#ancient history#british museum#archaeology#archaeology memes#musuems#parthenon#athens#greek posts#ancient greece#greek status

Several hundred years in the ground makes them seem more sterile somehow and less gross

I just watched this YouTube video by Wired, “archaeologist answers archaeology questions” and honestly, i hate it.
Disclaimer: I don’t want to imply that the professor is a fraud or saying untrue things, but to simplify: stereotypical and americentric. (Most likely forced on him)
Why the F is he wearing a safari hat?
His trowel is clean and isn’t worn
Hieroglyphs, not hieroglyphics
“I found a Mayan pyramid on google maps”. Good for you, but no one will manage to repeat that feat
I know it’s the American way, but the rest of the world doesn’t do “Indiana jones-ing” I.e. just going around looking for things.
Hand-held GPS gets you nowhere. Accuracy zero
I haven’t worked at an archaeological company that had working compasses, let alone a company that uses them (it’s called the sun)
Knows everything about all things around the world. Sure… (he’s a professor so it’s his job, but it’s too Indiana Jones for normal field archaeologists)
Nice for him to do something that involves him traveling out of the country for his specialization, but not all of us are that special
Talks a little too much about “big” things. Mayan pyramids, King Tut,… while archaeologists get hyped about two pieces of flint and a burn mark in the middle of nowhere. Archaeology is not blitz (I know it’s not video click-able but still…)
We indeed don’t use brushes for everything. But we also don’t use them on wet sand. Ruins the point. Also we usually use sticks and brushes on delicate stuff. Not silex tools
Did any non archaeologist/nuclear physicist actually understand his explanation of C14 dating? Cuz man…
Anyways

Prehistoric Preparations
Archaeologists recovered the nearly 2000-year-old toolkit last February.
The kit, once belonging to a nomadic hare, consists of two flint hand-blades, four cactus spine spears, and a carved wooden shield.
The remains of the hare were also "pretty nicely preserved, actually." (Source: Prof. Ein Gastort)
Stay up-to-date, or learn more about hare nomads, at frogiverse.com
