Eldorado Posted March 21, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2019 An "excavation" on social media has provided names for four women shown in pictures of a dig in Orkney. The women - shown in photographs taken in 1929 - had been assumed to be tourists or visitors. But since Prof Dan Hicks, from the University of Oxford, tweeted the images they have been named as archaeologists working on the site. Those behind the search say it shows how women have been written out of the history of archaeology.
