Episode description
Big data in archaeology is in the news again! With the release of an open access special issue of the Journal of Field Archaeology that focuses on big data in archaeology there is a renewed enthusiasm in the media for the subject. We discuss an Ars Technica article written about the issue that features a former two-time guest of the podcast. To start the show Paul tells us about his volunteer work at a local museum.
