I'm reading through Georg Agricola's De Re Metallica for a copper smelting video, and I've reached his feelings on alchemists...

What was the purpose of the iconic Andean monument of Monte Sierpe (aka Band of Holes)? New research supports a new interpretation: it was a barter marketplace, later developing into a monumental system of accounting under #Inca rule.

Here I am. Once again. I'm out of archaeologists.

We matched 576 groups w/archaeologists, leaving 13 groups unmatched. This brings me pain! We've never run out of scientists like this before. 598 requests for one category is A LOT. But still.

Archaeologists 🥺

Morning! There was a TON of interest in textile magic when I mentioned it as a possibility for wizard ‘spellbooks’ in late 7th century Scotland, so let’s do a deeper dive into Pictish textiles & possible textile magic…

Damn those modern #archeologists are confused if they think this canoe is in the sky.

They're carrying a water flask and a leather book satchel. Whatever message they're carrying, it's clearly urgent. On the left of the image, there is a quote: "It's basically the best book on the Picts ever written. By starting from Scotland's environment and incorporating lessons from archaeology, history and art, this brings the Picts to life more effectively than any other depiction I've yet seen." from Dr Adrián Maldonado, National Museums Scotland.

Help! My Minecraft's gone early medieval! No, seriously, I'm gonna be building early medieval Scotland block by block, using our new book, Carved in Stone, as a guide!

Do you think the Picts made charcoal out of lava? No? Are you sure?

Question for #archaeologysky and #historysky: When did flint knapping finally die out in Europe? I am guessing at least well into the Bronze Age. Were people still knapping flint outside (or inside) the Roman Empire's borders? Were they knapping in the middle ages?
