Guest lecture for our Digital Pasts topic on #machinelearning for archaeology with the talented Dr Jarrad Kowlessar

ARC2214 Europe Before Europe starts next week! Taught by @erinsebo.bsky.social, @johnkmccarthy.bsky.social, @janaanvari.bsky.social, Chelsea Wiseman, and @danclaggett.bsky.social

The TV coverage of our recent work with the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation. I'm really happy with it, although it does incorrectly state that I led the research since 2019, when it was @Jon_Benjamin and the DHSC team (deephistoryofseacountry.com) youtu.be/Ags54zpnG6A?...

Their Old People sang of a place lost beneath the waves. Now it’s found.

Another fantastic achievement of the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation collaborating with our Deep History of Sea Country project.

Congratulations @johnkmccarthy.bsky.social for leading this.
