And more old pictures:

This batch from Split, Croatia. Of all the archeological sites I’ve seen over the years, few compare to Diocletians Palace and the ruins at Salona.

Partially excavated Moai in the quarry at Rano Raraku, on Rapa Nui.

More old pictures— from the quarry at Rano Raraku, on Rapa Nui. Of the sites on the island, this one was probably the most impactful to me. Seeing the unfinished Moai was not something I was expecting.

Where should archaeologists dig next? The winners of this OpenAI contest can tell them. Archeological sites, like those in the Amazon, are disappearing faster than we can find them. Can AI help?
