This week #FCLabs had the pleasure to host Cristiano Nicosia (@GeoUnipd) and @FedePolisca (@dBC_UniPD) from @Geodap_ERC to study samples of Bronze Age stabling crusts to understand the practices of animal husbandry and waste management, as part of @Iperion_Hs.

[GEODAP -Geoarchaeology of Daily Practices @Geodap_ERC]

We spent two great days with Tom Mcgroggan and Grant Taggart of Logitech UK at the @GeoUnipd @UniPadova learning how to use the LP70 lapping machine to produce our soil/sediment thin sections! Thanks for sharing your expertise with us!

What a news!

[GEODAP -Geoarchaeology of Daily Practices @Geodap_ERC]

A Christmas present here: The new GEODAP thin section lab is finally running! The lab revolves around a Logitech LP70 lapping machine, and soon a BROT will be added to expand the capability to produce high-quality thin sections!
