The patron of archaeologists is Saint Elena (3rd century AD), a Roman empress and the mother of Constantine I. She is traditionally and anecdotally credited with the first "excavation" in search of ancient artifacts. Happy day to all the Elenas and all the archaeologists! @facultadexh.bsky.social

Back from holidays, time for the last test in Bichinos PoC1. These fragments were bleached some months ago and left out since to see if they catch any other bacteria from the environment and how they differ from the soil ones we already identified… #stoplooting @cretus.usc.gal @ecopast.bsky.social
