Today’s podcast hostage is Lana...Lana...Lanaaaaaaa Ruck. Lana is a dual Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Anthropology and Cognitive Science Program at Indiana University, Bloomington. She works at Olduvai Gorge as a student researcher at the Stone Age Institute, and she is an avid science communicator through IU's science blog, ScIU (@sciublog).Lana is a proud Texan, and got her B.A. in Anthropology at Texas Tech University and her M.A. at Florida Atlantic University. She has worked in Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Tanzania, focusing on stone tool technologies and toolmaking techniques. Lana is an interdisciplinary scientist and self-described "stone age neuroscientist."Her research combines brain imaging techniques with experimental archaeology to explore how our uniquely-human system of technology, language, and cognition evolved. Unfortunately, Lana allowed Carlton to be one of her participants for her dissertation research, and we are very excited to spill the tea on how that disaster went.

Every year archaeologists create a wealth of data through fieldwork and research that is essential to our understanding and interpretation of the past. Despite the geographic character of much of that record, we consistently fail to realise its potential. Site plans and detailed survey data are routinely locked into the pages of PDF reports. As a result plans fossilised in print cannot easily be reused alongside other datasets to improve our understanding of the past. There is often no consistency in how mapped data can be combined across projects to map the archaeological landscape. We need to wake up to opportunities digital transformation presents us as archaeologists in presenting our data to a wide audience.

Chris is the cofounder of the Archaeological Podcast Network (APN), the network that produces and edits our shenanigans. We wanted to talk to him about the founding of the APN, how he maintains and keeps it going and where he sees it going in the future. We also wanted to get some information on his background! We also discuss the Register of Professional Archaeologists and future changes to their membership. We might also talk about the APN’s other cofounder, Tristan Boyle, and his lovely accent. Give it a listen!Links Chris Webster Twitter: @archeowebby Instagram: @chris_archaeo_webster Facebook: www.facebook.com/captainwebby APN Twitter: @archpodnet APN Instagram: @archpodnet APN Facebook: www.facebook.com/archpodnet Chris’ Book: Field Archaeologist’s Survival Guide: Getting a Job and Working in CRM Contact Email: [email protected] Instagram: @alifeinruinspodcast Facebook: @alifeinruinspodcast Affiliates Wildnote Digital Marketing Course TeePublic Timeular

The Institute for Field Research, or IFR, was started by Dr. Ran Boytner in 2011. Since then the IFR has helped organize field schools around the world and has even been branching out from just archaeology. On this episode April and Chris talk to Dr. Boytner about the IFR, how you get a field school into the IFR, and how students can apply.Links IFR Website IFR on Instagram IFR on Facebook Episode talking about attending a conference (mentioned in the last segment) Contact Chris Webster [email protected] Affiliates Wildnote Digital Marketing Course TeePublic Timeular

Oxygen Isotope analysis has long been used to analyze a person’s skeletal material to find out where they lived and sometimes how they lived. Until now, this has been on a large time scale - often of years and decades. Now, with this new research, some cases can be analyzed down to the month or even tighter. It’s amazing research and further opens our window to the past.LinksOxygen isotope microanalysis across incremental layers of human bone: Exploring archaeological reconstruction of short term mobility and seasonal climate changeApp of the Day Webby: Noon Paul: Sequel Pro Contact Chris Webster Twitter: @archeowebby Email: [email protected] Paul Zimmerman Twitter: @lugal Email: [email protected] Affiliates Wildnote Digital Marketing Course TeePublic Timeular
