Meet @BaileyFranzoi, a visiting researcher @STARC_CyI and PhD candidate @UMich. Bailey is a (fast-learning!) zooarchaeologist in training! Here she is sorting sheep and goat astragali, an essential skill in Mediterranean zooarchaeology! Happy to share knowledge @CyprusInstitute!

Our colleagues Efthymia Nikita & Mahmoud Mardini of @STARC_CyI have created a FREE resource for young students interested in bioarchaeology. 🦴 What can we learn about people in the past by studying their skeletons? Download 'Bare Bones' and find out ➡️ tinyurl.com/2s3dbyss

A huge undertaking, but quite proud of this project. We made sure to include an interactive 🗺️ and many filters to make life easy when searching for relevant Mediterranean (🇪🇸🇫🇷🇮🇹🇬🇷🇹🇷🇱🇧🇯🇴🇪🇬🇨🇾🇹🇳) Sr Isotope data. Also do send us feedback for improvement. #Isotope #Archaeology 1/2

Next batch of comparative fish specimens and it includes pearly razorfish (see photo)! Not as tasty as #garum but hopefully will produce tasty food for our brains in the form of knowledge about ancient people, environments and their interactions. Yummy! @STARC_CyI

We've struck gold with all summer interns @STARC_CyI! @EmilyChristophi joined the team (w/ @HeikkilaRaija) just yesterday & is already familiar with #animal #osteology. She’s a fast learner and has studied and marked a goat & a dog skeleton. Appetite for knowledge is unbeatable!

@SACHROFICS reference collection database @STARC_CyI uploaded! Hopefully it's useful to fellow zooarchaeologists & beyond. Have a look & get in touch to use/borrow/exchange: sachrofics.cyi.ac.cy/referen… PS: Logo updated (from pig to lamb/kid) for more accuracy (based on findings!)
