Castle Dump for Christmas 🎄✨
First day on the archaeology job, forced to learn braille.
I haven't put this up on Academia.edu or ResearchGate.net yet because the Internet in Teuchitlan is being really slow. But here's a Google Drive link to the text followed by the slides.
Enjoy!
Orcs that are more like 1st edition D&D.

It’s been a ridiculously long time since the last Arte-Factual deep dive. I’d almost forgotten how much I enjoyed researched and writing these articles! So without further ado, let’s take a look at one of the many Mesoamerican-inspired artefacts Lara Croft found in Paititi’s Hidden City: the metatl.

It's because of you i had the thought of "wow the archeology of this place would be wild wish there was a fanfic about it" while playing a video game.
Have you ever had a similar thought while playing/watching something?
Great news: you don't even need a fanfic to experience video game archaeology! Check out archaeogaming-- it's archaeology in and of video games.
I've never really been a huge video game person, so I'll admit that I don't really know much about any specific video games and what would make good archaeology. But there are people out there thinking about it!
I'm honored that I was able to spark this thought!

CALL FOR PAPERS
My friend and I are running a session at the 2019 TAG Archaeology conference in London! The topic is the archaeology and history of gaming 😃🎮♟🎲
Confused? Fair enough 😅 If you’re wondering how the archaeology of games (otherwise known as Archaeogaming!) works, we made a zine about it:
https://florencesmithnicholls.itch.io/archaeogaming-zine
We welcome papers from ANYONE. If you have a good idea, send it our way! If you’ve never done this before and need help or have questions let us know 🙂 You can find all the details here:

If you can’t come to London but still want to get involved we will also have a Twitter conference running alongside our session 😊💻📱
Spent Sunday night at Starbucks drafting out the last section of the paper that’s due on Thursday.
*internally screams*
This is the last weekend of 6 weekends that I’ve stayed home to just work on the paper. Can’t wait to not feel guilty about leaving the house for fun!
That being said, I still love every moment of writing this paper.
