Revisiting reflexive archaeology at Çatalhöyük: integrating digital and 3D technologies at the trowel's edge

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

ExcavationsatC¸atalhöyükhavebeenongoing for over 20 years and have involved multi-national teams, a diverse range of archaeological specialists and a vast archive of records. The task of marshalling this data so that it can be useful not only at the post-excavation stage, but also while making decisions in the field, is challenging. Here, members of the team reflect on the use of digital technology on-site to promote a reflexive engagement with the archaeology. They explore how digital data in a fieldwork context can break down communication barriersbetweenspecialists,fosteraninclusive approach to the excavation process and facilitate reflexive engagement with recording and interpretation.
