@UW_Archy269 my favorite game is candy crush! iโve been playing since i can remember but it became a regular part of my routine when college started. archaeologists might be able to infer that i use candy crush as a stress coping mechanism and way to relax at the end of the day #UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269#UW_Archy269 My favorite ruin/landmark in seattle is gasworks! it was one of the first places i went with my friends when i got to college and reminds me of that time in my life
@UW_Archy269 the archeology of homlessness focuses on how homeless people use the resources available to them in ways that help them adapt to where they are living #UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269@jason_p_deleon My key takeaway from the Land of Open Graves was how material items are seen differently. Many of the items used for border crossing were seen as trash by the border patrol but are seen as necessities/survival tools by the migrants or archeological items by others.

@UW_Archy269 im having trouble accessing the first video for tomorrow. whenever i open the link it says the video is private however, the second one plays normally. i tried opening it in a private browser but that was no luck. any suggestions?๐
@UW_Archy269 The Amache case study was really interesting. I found the artifact vs archaeological object discussion to make me think a lot about what we consider โartifactsโ and how that affects survivors of contemporary violence #UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269 I realized Iโve missed a few weeks for tweeting my questions for #officehours and I was wondering if Iโm still able to catch up by asking a few extra questions in these upcoming weeks?
@UW_Archy269#UW_Archy269 since the pandemic started iโve become used to having inside clothes and outside clothes which i didnโt worry as much about before. this sometimes makes my room more cluttered than before because the clothing chair builds up faster than usual
@UW_Archy269#UW_Archy269 Because such a small amount of material possessions go into the archaeological record, is it hard to choose what is documented from the pandemic? or will that be figured out later on?
@UW_Archy269#UW_Archy269 canโt live without my mug! coffee, tea, water, literally anything. i should also mention that i donโt own any other drinking cups other than mugs๐ฅธ
@UW_Archy269#UW_Archy269 Archeology is the study of different populations through the immersion into the individual cultures including recovering artifacts through excavation and studying different rituals and routines of the people.
