As requested, the list of archaeology nemeses which i poses: (in no particular order other than #5 bc tumblrs formatting hates me right now, and i cant be bothered to fix it)
Whoever convinced the general public that archaeologists and paleontologists are the same thing (not the public themselves, i can be nice to them, but whoever started it.............. i just want to talk)
Trying to excavate in dry soil with high sand content and having sediment patches just... leak out in random spots from the pit walls
Cant Function A Mattock To Save My Life
Sieving wet clay is like sieving porridge and its TERRIBLE and HORRIBLE and DISGUSTING and makes HORRENDUS SOUNDS
As discussed, Munsell chart and my complete and utter inability to read colours correctly
Any varient of the "The archaeologists didnt figure this out it was some Normal Person Who Knows Crafts And Life Skills" my Dear Personal Friend i hate to rain on your anti-academia parade, but archaeologists ARE people (although jury's still out on normal for some of them...)
Two types of archaeologists
So- I'm a freshly graduated archaeology student and I wanted to point something out...
this is the funniest shit I've ever seen.
LIKE
THEY LITERALLY DESIGNED THE OIL LAMP PERFECTLY FINE (maybe a little dull for a queen but whatevs)
IT'S GOT THE NOZZLE AND MOUTH AND EVERYTHING
however, there's one VERY KEY FLAW IN THIS SYSTEM
WHAT THE HELL DO THEY THINK THIS PART IS FOR????
for anyone still confused here’s an actual oil lamp in use:
The wick would go through the nozzle and the oil poured through the top hole would soak the wick until the oil ran out.
HOW DOES THE TMB LAMP EVEN FUNCTION???????
however, I will say that they were correct in assuming it could light up that whole room: they are very powerful.
(if you have any questions - any more questions... just ask)

Things you only say as an archaeologist, #473:
‘Oh, for fuck’s sake, I’ve got a really irritating bit of Mycenaean tomb stuck in my boot.’
(Bonus points that I was just outside the Sackler Library, Oxford, after returning from a research trip)
A farmer (accidentally) poisoned me today.
Archaeology!
