Learning archaeology almost entirely from a textbook in virtual learning can be exhausting and confusing. I am a virtual and audio learner so this helps a lot, thank you!

[@DigItWithRaven]

If there are any other subjects you or other students in your class would like, please let me know!!

[@djork6518]

my dig starts in two weeks and i'm watching you to prep!! very excited, you're my inspo

[@DigItWithRaven]

OOOH exciting! Be sure to check out my packing video so you don't forget anything 😉

[@ainamardhiahrazali9241]

Thank you for sharing. it easy for to understand. I need to understand it cuz now taking conservation archeology at my university. :

[@louisebedford1044]

Amazing video I loved it!! I would love a video on underwater archaeology if that is something that interests you but any archaeology videos are just the best!!

[@DigItWithRaven]

Oooh definitely something that interests me! Have to do a lot of research for it but it'll be a fun challenge!

[@philipclark8307]

Glad I found you!

[@JennaLynn1112]

This is great help, I am doing virtual field-school due to covid. Really helps supplement the material in class

[@DigItWithRaven]

Thanks!! If there are any other topics you don't see videos on that you think would be helpful, let me know 😊

[@baileyperceval1298]

Really enjoy your content Raven! Do you have any resources/ videos on finding employment as an archaeologist/ the state of archaeological practice? I’m a history graduate who’s thinking of moving over to archaeology :)

[@davidvignola1752]

Very distinct earrings, and somehow, they ring a bell.

[@davidvignola1752]

But puns aside... very interesting. Learning so much from your videos, and you are expanding knowledge and awareness in a field I love.

[@DigItWithRaven]

Thanks so much! Glad you like both my earrings and the videos 😊

[@DigItWithRaven]

There's lots more to come!

[@djork6518]

citing you in my essays one of these days

[@rodfleck]

Thank you for this. Attending a dig for a week later this month. Volunteering and wanting to have some concepts understood before I step on the site. THIS HELPED A LOT!

[@hibarabah333]

I am studying restoration and preservation of antiquities in Tunisia. Can I excavate antiquities in another country?

[@Astroponicist]

Venturi systems would speed up archaeological excavations in places like Egypt very well. A quarter inch screen of steel plate could differentiate between the sand and any finds of archaeological value. Such a system could remove tons of sand from an archaeological site while preserving the position of even modest size Stones underneath. With multiple venturis in line the sand could be moved long distances quickly and efficiently. For long duration digs it might even be possible to power the pumps with solar arrays positioned for shade over the dig site resulting in a multiplication of benefits. Please take a look at venturi granular convenience. Your kinda cute by the way but I've been drinking so I'm being more honest than usual.

[@Davlavi]

Love your work.

[@mrindianhacker7031]

Mam your eye wink 😜 so cool 😂

[@exodusbby4546]

Hi Raven, I'm Esme and I am 16 I have a degree in osteology. I want to become Archaeologist but it's hard to find a good college do you have any tips or know any good colleges for Archaeology majors.

[@DigItWithRaven]

Hi Esme, if you like Osteology, I have a friend who did her Masters at the University of Leiden and they have a GREAT osteology lab. Are you looking to continue in that?

[@exodusbby4546]

Dig It With Raven I love Osteology, and Leiden University was actually my first pick for college but I would definitely like to continue studies for Archaeology and maybe Anthropology. Does Leiden have anthropology? My goal is to be able to get a PhD in Archaeology then a masters in Osteology.

[@DigItWithRaven]

Leiden does have a cultural anthropology MSc! Have a look at their website to see if the program is something you're interested in😊

[@exodusbby4546]

@@DigItWithRaven I will definitely check that out thank you for your help. You are a huge role model for me I really appreciate your help!
