found a pretty bad graph crime today
Image shows a archaeological figure showing the distribution of estimated use lives of basin hollows by technological stage. The graph is almost impossible to read as it has three dimensions (frequency, estimated use life, stage). It displays each stage as a different ribbon that looks like folded cardboard where foreground stages obscure background stages. The use of a line/ribbon graph is incorrect as the data comes from counts of individual items. A 2D histogram with the stage counts indicated by differing color or symbology would be much clearer and simpler.

Back to counting quarry pits again #Archaeology #GIS
A raster birdseye image displaying Indigenous Australian Quarry pits for archaeological research, the image displays a complex of circular pits from the extraction of sandstone blocks.
