Wood engraving print, 75x75mm. The Ring of Brodgar, Orkney.

#StandingStoneSunday #printmaking #art #prehistory

Print in black ink of six tall, slender standing stones, part of stone circle. The stones and the ground have some realism. The sky is more graphically represented by horizontal line that increases in width as they rise through cumulus clouds.

The Carpow logboat on display in Perth Museum 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 It was found in the Tay Estuary near Perth and dates to around 1000 BC, in the Late Bronze Age. #Woodensday #logboat #oak #prehistory #scotland #archaeology

A colour photo taken from the rear end of the logboat on display. The slot for a missing transom can be seen on this end of the boat. The massive nature of the logboat is evident. Photo copyright ©️ Coralie Mills 2023

This Tom Björklund painting touches me much more than I could say. He made it to illustrate a paper in Science that relates the finding of the first ever known father-daughter pair of Neandertals, in a siberian cave.

A painting of a Neandertal father and his daughter. She sits on his shoulders. He seems to carry a wooden stick and holds his daughter's leg. They both have a very gentle expression on their faces.

Time for a new #introduction!

I'm a former #geographer & #mapmaker, now working on a #PhD project in digital #archaeology, between #Prehistory and #openSource #geospatial.

I used to work as an #artist, I'm into #sailing (I was #livingAboard during a few years) and #musicMaking is my happy place. I'm also a happy #dad and I'm fluent in fr, en & es.

Finally, I'm the proud admin of https://Mapstodon.space, a great #Mastodon instance dedicated to maps — & full of decent and interesting people!
