Yesterday, @FerRacimo staged an "intervention", interrupting his own research talk at the #KielScales23 conference to call on archaeologists, archaeo-geneticists and other scientists of the past to join the movement for climate and ecological justice

It’s time to say goodbye after Kiel Conference #KielScales23 at #KielUni for everyone who does't join our excursions tomorrow. We're going home with a load full of new knowledge, fresh Input, and maybe some research questions, to be solved in the future. See you next time!

"How do we prevent illegal objects from entering an University Collection? - Make it open!" #KielScales23

Thanks @sarah_krienen for sharing your knowledge about the Statistical Analysis of Acquisitions, Cultural #Heritage Protection and the #Art Market in Classical #Archaeological University Collections. #KielScales23 @archaeodons @histodons

At #KielScales23 Arndís Bergsdóttir and Eyrún Eyþórsdóttir figure out how #museums can avoid that their exhibitions about Viking age #heritage get instrumentalized by right-wing #HateSpeech using #Nordic medieval imageries. How should museums present those objects without disregarding #ethics?

Impressions of the day: in addition to the ROOTS Essay competition and Prof. Dr. Carola Metzner-Nebelsick’s inspiring Keynote, we have had 11 more interesting Sessions on past societies at Kiel Conference #KielScales23. Which one was your favorite?

At 13:30 Ana Paula Motta @anapmottaArch is giving us food for thought on how to analyze the vast human and #animal depictions during the #Pleistocene, in order to assess human/animal interactions and the contribution of animals to social Identity. @kieluni #KielScales23

At #Kielscales23 Ajia Macane presents a new #interdisciplinary study on slotted bone points found at Zvejnieki II #Mesolithic settlement site in present-day #Latvia and Lake Lubāns. The curious audience can't wait for the announced article!

Sidestone press is now presenting their books at #KielScales23! There is a sales desk in room104b, right next to the conference reception, where you can look at their books and make an order.

Genetics points to two almost complete population changes in the area of present-day Denmark during the #StoneAge. What consequences this finding may have for our image of the Stone Age, was presented by #JMAchair Anders Fischer today at #KielScales23. Thank you to all guests for the lively discussion after the presentation. https://www.cluster-roots.uni-kiel.de/en/news/jma-chair-anders-fischer
