More Big Data in the News - Ep 146 The ArchaeoTech Podcast

Big data in archaeology is in the news again! With the release of an open access
special issue of the Journal of Field Archaeology that focuses on big data in
archaeology there is a renewed enthusiasm in the media for the subject. We
discuss an Ars Technica article written about the issue that features a former
two-time guest of the podcast. To start the show Paul tells us about his
volunteer work at a local museum.
