Archaeology News
Given some ongoing projects, we'll be on a reduced output for the next few weeks, but I did still want to update on some fun news.
1) Preserved brains! Not normally something you'd expect to find in the archaeological record, but there are thousands of brains preserved, some as old as 12,000 years.

4) An update on the mega treasure ship the San Jose
