Another amazing mini-season with the @bsrome.bsky.social team, finding new ways for geophysics to teach us about the intersection of agriculture, marble extraction, and urbanism in the ancient Cyclades!

New fieldwork this week on Paros, #Greece! 🏺 🏛️
Ground-Penetrating Radar survey adjacent to excavations at #Hellenistic and #Roman houses and a sculpture workshop. 3D modelling of structural remains will also tie in with subsurface features captured by radar. /1

Marble from the island of Naxos was used for some of the most beautiful monuments from the ancient Greek world–but how were huge blocks like these quarried 2,500 years ago?
Check out our new paper in @antiquity.ac.uk at bit.ly/4h9AVik to learn how we're developing new ways to study old quarries 🏺🇬🇷

One of the most beautiful museums in a city full of them, it's entirely dedicated to the life & art of Denmark's most iconic sculptor. What's inside? Let's take a look in this 🧵!
