On digital technologies in archaeology...

Digital technologies allow me to think differently about the scale at which data is collected and stored as well as the speed at which it is analyzed. For instance, taking advantage of technology has allowed the LEIA Project team to record dozens of attributes for more than 16,000 ceramic artifacts without a single paper form and to have this data immediately accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. This means that it is already in a format ready to be summarized, explored, and shared in novel ways using other digital tools designed to easily handle these large datasets.
