Archaeologists in 2012 discovered a 1,000-year-old tomb 20 miles south of the Peruvian capital Lima. It contains the cloth-covered skeletal remains of over 70 people – most of them thought to be children. The 60-ft-long grave is linked to the ‘Painted Temple’ where the Huari people used to pray to Pacha Kamaq – their God of Creation. Search terms:peru csontváz

This summer, students from Howard Community College worked alongside 10 other European Universities at an excavation site in Bibracte, France. Bibracte was one of Europe’s earliest towns — a capital for the Aedui, a Gallic ‘tribe’ conquered by Julius Caesar during the Gallic Wars. HCC is the only US institution to work at the archaeological site. Many thanks to the team’s instructor, Dr. Laura Cripps, for producing this video. http://www.howardcc.edu/academics/international/office_international_education/FranceArchaeologyStudyAbroad/FranceArchaeologyStudyAbroad.html http://www.bibracte.fr/index_uk.php Search terms:bibracte excavationsexcavation site bibractethe bibracte dig

Archaeologists may not need to get their hands so dirty any more, thanks to the kind of digital technology being pioneered at Southampton University. Its ‘µ-VIS Centre for Computed Tomography’ possesses the largest, high energy scanner of its kind in Europe: a ‘micro-CT’ machine manufactured by Nikon. Capable of resolutions better than 0.1mm – the diameter of a human hair – it allows archaeologists to carefully examine material while still encased in soil.
