Conservation and Restoration of Archaeological Materials

Unveiling the Secrets of History with Archaeology Dogs Did you know about these amazing four-legged detectives? Archaeology dogs, also known as archaeological or historic human remains detection dogs, are highly trained canines that assist archaeologists in uncovering human remains, historic graves and ancient sites! How do they do it? These dogs have an incredible sense of smell, making them invaluable in surveying large areas quickly and efficiently. Archaeology dogs excel at locating burial sites, from ancient tombs to more recent resting places. Their keen noses can detect human remains buried deep underground, aiding in forensic archaeology and historical investigations. Imagine the stories they help unravel from centuries past! Let's give a round of applause to these incredible canine archaeologists! Keep following for more fascinating insights into the world of archaeology and heritage preservation. #ArchaeologyDogs #HeritageDetection #HistoryUnearthed #DogDetectives #ForensicArchaeology #AncientSites #Archaeology #DiscoverHistory #DogMerickel #DogTrainer #DogTraining #WorkingDog #K9 #HistoricGraveDogDetection #HRD #detectiondog #DogScience

🌊 Embracing Heritage in Offshore Development 🌊 https://lnkd.in/e3iUb-y3 Erica Walther shares insights into an increasingly crucial aspect of offshore development—navigating the rich tapestry of cultural heritage within Australia's expansive Sea Country. This field presents unique challenges and opportunities, especially given the intricate legal and government frameworks. As highlighted, successful offshore projects require more than just technological and logistical planning. They demand a deep respect and understanding of the Indigenous connections to these lands and waters, which span over 65,000 years. At RSK Group company Extent Heritage , we recognise the importance of partnering with Traditional Owners and incorporating archaeological expertise from the early stages of any project. This approach not only helps navigate the evolving landscape of laws and regulations but also ensures that our projects honor and preserve the intangible and tangible histories of the indigenous communities. As we look towards future developments, let’s commit to fostering meaningful collaborations that respect and uplift the heritage of the land and sea that support our endeavors. I am eager to hear your thoughts on how we can continue to integrate these critical perspectives into our industry practices. #CulturalHeritage #SustainableDevelopment #OffshoreDevelopment #RSKGroup #APAC

Pre-Roman necropolis with amphorae-covered graves unearthed near Pompeii Archaeological excavations in Pompeii have unearthed a significant pre-Roman necropolis dating back to between the 3rd and 1st centuries BCE. The necropolis was discovered a quarter mile from the eastern edge of the Roman city, during modernization work on the railway line and the construction of the parking garage on Via Fucci. The site has yielded 35 earthen pit burials. These burials are characterized by their simple construction, covered with amphorae arranged in an alternating neck and tip formation. Notably, the amphorae, originating from North Africa, feature makers’ marks in the Punic language, also known as Carthaginian...

All archaeologists don’t look like Indiana Jones. And they don't always carry bullwhips. But they do play an important role in cultural resources management and project development. My Stantec colleague Gilbert Browning explains how in this article with Alaska Business . #CulturalResources #Archaeology

We’ve had lunch and are ready to dive into the afternoon sessions at Day Two of CIfA’s conference. There’s the Making It Last: Achieving Sustainable Legacy in Public Archaeology session, which will explore this challenge through case studies of community archaeological projects. Or there’s Changing Roles and Legacies in Archaeology, with speakers followed by a discussion panel. Alternatively, there’s Resilience and Realignment: the Agency of Heritage Professionals within the Framework set by Design & Engineering Consultancies. #archaeology #archaeologyuk #cifa2024 #archaeologist #archaeologynews #archaeologicalexcavation #archaeologyfieldwork #archaeologicalscience
