The advances just keep coming.
My mind boggled when they used DNA to group fragments of sheepskin from the Dead Sea Scrolls and made the impossible job of reconstruction a little more possible.
Then there was a computer program that used scanned images of pottery shards and fitted them together in minutes instead of months of painstaking trial and error.
I always though one noble invention would be to scan cuneiform tablets and have a computer at least make them printable and perhaps even translateable (yeah I know, context problems), but still . . .
Interesting development. Technologies march onward.
Winter is coming.
Ironic that the person who wrote this is named Stone.
