In the frame of the Talos Project @UClouvain, and in collaboration with JA MacGillivray, @APAC of the @STARC_CyI, the @EBSA, @EFALAS and the @Hellenic Ministry of Culture, @AORIFILMS, we are proud to present our first work on the Kouros of Palaikastro at https://t.co/W0BXWh4ByK.

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 ➡️ https://t.co/BDtQlcljfT

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!

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 @sachrofics]

@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:
