A glorious day on site with our @ucdarchaeology.bsky.social fieldschool at Glendalough. Lots of digging, planning and sieving - always sieving...

We can't wait for Indiana Jones and the 100 hours of sieving to find one pottery sherd 😍
Would actually watch any of these…

…when they call. 🪶

(Those aren’t teeth; they’re lamellae—ridges on the bill used for sieving)

Striped mackerel are filter feeders opening their cavernous mouths as they swim and sieving zooplankton from the water with their gill rakers acting like a net.

second mustard update: we have resorted to sieving the mustard.
first mustard update:

the seeds on the left soaked for 36 hours. the first batch on the left was made from seeds which soaked overnight, before being ground in my mom’s extra coffee grinder and mushed up with rice wine vinegar in her tiny food processor.

‘Sieving’ the population is an ugly term - callous and bureaucratic. Not a million miles from ‘Europe will be combed through from West to East.’
The Times editorial line: "sieve" the entire population so we can put 100s of thousands of people into camps.

"Removing a city’s worth of people would be an extended exercise. Identity cards would be a must if the population was to be sieved into legitimate and illegitimate camps"

Immature Greater Flamingo at El Hondo Spain yesterday. It’s got to eat quite a lot more shrimps to get its pink coloration. Amazing bill for sieving for shrimps - nature is incredible. #birds #birdoftheday #birdsseenin2024 #birdphotography #birding

In the *real* cyberpunk dystopia, the Internet is so flooded with hallucinations that digital archeology isn't good enough.

The problem isn't finding information, but sieving through an infinite amount of absolute bullshit.

Applied epistemology, field ontologists, etc.
Where the job of a digital archeologist is not "find the thing" but "find the thing among a billion slightly different versions of itself"

This is no longer archeology but applied epistemology.

Yes - fairy lights are an increasingly common find from late Iron Age houses. Usually recovered during sieving

It was described to me like sieving flour over a shape and working out what the shape was by how and where the flour has landed and its "shadows".

In 3D.

The simple fact is that how we get our food is by far and away the main cause of nature loss worldwide, whether it's turning natural habitat into livestock pasture, flushing poultry excrement into rivers, sieving the seas for marine wildlife, or whatever else.

We can't fix it while ignoring this.
Precision fermentation could radically transform our food system — without radically transforming what foods we eat.

That's why we're teaming up with @georgemonbiot.bsky.social to make a short film about it, and we need your help to make it happen. ⬇️🐄❌

This morning I visited a preserved flour factory from the early 20th century, for a work project.
Very interesting place, almost all the machines were made of wood, it was powered by the nearby river, and the process was almost automatic, just using gravity and friction!
Learnt a lot about bread!

Ha! Like sieving out crap

And of course - still recording finds, digging and sieving. Always sieving... In our defence: its not a bad place to be doing some sieving...
