A new article on the PHOTARCH method has just been published in the latest issue of The European Archaeologist(TEA), the official newsletter of the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA). You can read the full article here.
TEA reaches thousands of archaeologists across Europe and beyond, and regularly highlights new ideas, tools, and methods that shape archaeological practice today. To be featured here is a chance to introduce PHOTARCH to a wider audience of researchers, museum professionals, and heritage specialists.
The article outlines the core idea behind the method:
If artefact photography were done in a standardised, comparable way — what would that allow us to see?
PHOTARCH emerged out of that question. The goal has always been to create a consistent visual language for archaeological artefacts — one that works across time, institutions, and geography. A single method, but many users. Simple enough to scale, precise enough to compare.
