Are you a recent #archaeology PhD? We're looking for a post-doc position to work with the @DPAA and their #archaeological #data.

It's a Macaw/parrot head.

I get why without context it looks like an elephant, but within the context of Maya art which can often be stylized, it's not that unusual, and you can see the nostril (magenta) and the featherless scale ring around the eye (green)

This is a common mistake, see this pic and this link: https://t.co/1AngUJN8xi

@dblumenfeld00 I’m hungover just looking at this.

A version of Harjo’s Born of the Sun is the cover image for Birds of the Sun. When I first suggested it for the cover, it was a total pipe dream. After writing his studio about the book, they let us use it without fee and were excited to see it adapted in this way.

We are very sad to hear that Benjamin Harjo Jr. (Absentee Shawnee/Seminole) passed away. Harjo was a renowned Native American artist who received numerous awards during his lifetime. Sending our deepest condolences to his family & friends 💙

Most squirrel bites originate at the front, or “bitey end,” of the squirrel.

Of all the collaborations I've been lucky enough to participate in, this is the one I'm most proud to be part of. Questions about how #archaeological #data are (re)used in the future should be on every archaeologists mind when they undertake a project.
