Happy New Year everyone!
Inspired by #museum30 created by Gracie Price (@magnifyzoology) that runs in November, I decided to create an #archaeology31 photo challenge on Twitter to brighten up everyone’s January.
The idea is for archaeologists to post one photo a day in January, with a specific theme each day (see list below). I kept some of the same themes as #museum30 but changed others. These are very broad so they can be interpreted however you like. Any feedback on them would be welcome.
You don’t have to do every day. You can catch up or just start on the day you hear about it. The photos should be yours for the most part. You don’t have to be a digging archaeologist. It’ll be fun to show tweeps what archaeologists really do!
The last day coincides with the Public Archaeology Twitter Conference (#PATC3) on 31st Jan, which is about archaeological storytelling so our theme for that day is #agoodstory.
