Antiquist, and other mailing lists

Just a few days ago, good news were published that the Antiquist community decided to open up its mailing list archives, making thus accesible to anyone months of discussions and e-mails.

I've been a subscriber of the Antiquist mailing list for many months right now and it is a pleasure to see how active its members are and the interesting discussions that take place there - sometimes also interconnected with the blogs aggregated on Electra Atlantis. There's indeed a true community around these electronic places.

There's life on the Planet!

Thanks to Tom Elliot, now we have two planets aggregators for a number of ancient world and digital archaeology blogs at http://planet.atlantides.org/ Tune your RSS readers!

But there's more: also iosa.it is featured on the Maia Atlantis aggregator. We hope to bring some free software and open access on this new planet, so to make it as good as possible for our readers.

Mailing list

There's a new mailing list, that can be easily accessed at http://list.iosa.it ( subscribe from there or just by sending an e-mail message to archaeology-subscribe@lists.linux.it ).
List archives of previous posts can be accessed freely at http://lists.linux.it/pipermail/archaeology/ .
This list was created after the workshop in Grosseto to keep together everyone - be her/him archaeologist, informatic, or anything else - who has got interest in these topics that we focus on:
  • archaeological computing, archaeoinformatics, quantitative methods and other similar topics
  • discussion about the stardards for archaeological record and documentation
  • free/open source software, open formats and standards, open access to scientific literature and data sharing
Currently there are 52 subscribers from all across Europe.
