Just joined this wild new federated world, time for an #introduction
I'm a landscape archaeologist by training, with specializations in #medieval and #postmedieval #archaeology in #Greece and #GIS . I love maps so much that I became a GIS librarian!
Other interests (in no particular order):
#programming
#python
#remotesensing
#satellites
#spacearchaeology
#webmapping
#opendata
#openaccess
#foss
#libraries
#metadata

And following on here are the Staythorpe workings. The most extensive of the three, together with surviving sluice gates. #River #RiverTrent #Embankments #Archaeology #PostMedieval

Not everyday that you identify a hitherto unrecognised class of archaeological site. I present to you, the workings from which materials to build #river #embankments were extracted. Shallow, sub-rectangular cuttings. Three examples I identified today at #Fiskerton #Rolleston and #Staythorpe on the #RiverTrent #Notinghamshire. Interesting, one working per #parish, suggesting #local #community involvement. Ground #photographs with #LiDAR plots. #Archaeology #PostMedieval
