Hi
So we can use this loot antiquities from Graves? 😉
Looking at tombs by hand is indeed very time consuming, which is why most modern archaeologists look at them by eye.
I am informed by my friend Joe (an archaeologist) that He finds removing dust and sediment with his eyelashes tedious; but, hey, to each their own.
@@beaker_guy what’s an archaeologist
@@shootymcshootfacekoff7972 they study spiders
The Orkney Islands has a crapload of ruins you can view from Google Maps. Really interesting to explore!
Glad I checked it out, thanks for the recommendation.
Any examples? I couldn't see any. Thanks!
مرحبا صديق هل استطيع ان اكلمك
Gotta say Hank, you have a winning last name
If I had stayed in Archaeology I might have migrated to Satellite Analysis. I loved the real science of excavation (and dug quite a few burials), but there are things you can just see from the air or space that save so much time on the ground.
I hope archaeologists are planning on excavating and exploring these tombs, too, not just stopping at satellite mapping. Yes, it takes time, but it always has and it yields important and interesting information you can’t get anywhere else!
Wow a video concerning both archeology and space narrated by Hank Green, someone must be looking out for me!
*Looks at the thumbnail*
Doofenshmirts: A satellite..... PERRY THE SATELLITE!
idk why they chose sci show of all channels but theres a ton of bots spamming links to some dodgy, probably nsfw sites all throughout the comments. If you see them, probably try report them
Yeah, it sucks. The worst is the ones that basically emulate a chain of replies about NFTs.
Pretty sure they are doing it on any channel of a decent size
@@Warden409 I have reported several of those cluster bots over the past couple of weeks.
It's universal throughout all the popular channels.
I thought this was just going to be about identifying the tombs from satellite imagery which would've been cool enough. But no, now we got cluster analysis on the groupings 🤯
Nice. Thanks!
This is literally the device they described in house of ashes
Book?
@@hippyjesus01 video game
"100 years ago, a satellite detected an object under the sands of the Great Desert..."
Which compels the question...
Can this process be utilized in recognizing formations or structures on other planets in habitable zones of their star system?
doubt it cuz we cant even see the flag on the moon
@@nicholaswroblewski3069
From the time that flag had been planted to present, satellite imagery has exponentially improved with ever advanced technology.
By the way, that flag can not now be seen even if you were standing next to where it was planted due to deterioration by solar bombardment.
@@joesmith6776 your initial question was exhilarating!!
Stars are SPACE ARCHEOLOGY!!!
Dig one up.😉
@@drstone7014
It's all those Egyptian Pyramids, human faces, teaspoons, and McDonald's Big Macs they found there.🙄
Me, after seeing house of ashes games: oh no... no Pazuzu nests please.
FR though, I like how tech, hopefully the good ones, in fiction becomes reality eventually.
Have they considered that the stuff is clustered based on how well you can transport things there? It seems like the simple explenation. You need to get into those hills. Not every path is gonna be equally easy. Once there is a easy path found you use that till it's full. Or any other reason
That is a hell of a thumbnail
*"You call this archaeology?!"*
@@hippyjesus01 > That is such an asinine comment that I'm actually at a loss for words. Well done.
I wonder if tomb robbers can use this to find profitable targets and if so how can scientists and people who want to preserve culture and history protect against it?
Most tomb robbers don't have access to NASA's sattelites.
@@lordbalthosadinferni4384 point
Almost every tomb worth robbing has been robbed already. Tomb robbers are not that much of an issue nowadays.
@@lonestarr1490 well that's a depressing thought
Imagine having your thousand year nap(while you're dead of course) only to be dug up by modern humans. Not sure how my ghost/spirit would feel about that - if such a thing even exist.
If such a thing exists, I hope it's not forced to hang out near its body all the time. I could definitely imagine better ways to spend eternity than sitting around watching myself decay.
Most tombs aren’t dug up, but are destroyed by development. We can either dig and preserve them, or just let them get destroyed.
Probably be happy for the company. 😁😁
Here there come...House of Ashes
Satellittes and tombs? Better grab an UV light before the alien-vampire-zombie things attack
No, there is another way. We have TECHNOLOGY!
I want to take my stem cells to the next level.
Oh, stem Skills? Never mind
4:28 - It is how our graveyards work.

This is how we recreate House of Ashes
Day 93 of asking for the return of Scishow Quizshow
I would love to see a month quizshow episode!
I miss Quizshow and Talkshow so much, but I imagine they put them on hold because of the whole "bunch of people in a small space during a pandemic" thing.
@@Azzarinne Most likely the current reason, but they stopped them 2 years ago, a bit before covid. They were going to revamp the rules and setup an actual scoring format for them but then they never reappeared. They recently did the Fossil Feud: Eons Vs Scishow one and would love to see a Quizshow over zoom like that.
I clicked because I saw Dr. Jones' hat. Please give it back to him.
Hank's shirt is white and gold
_caelus..._ *_CAELUS_*
Gotta wonder if this is fiction leading Science or Science leading fiction
Oh boy, alien mothership here we come. This is a certified house of ashes moment.
I think the background leaked into hanks shirt
The Neyman-Scott Cluster Process could be used to determined if someone is using wall-hacks in gaming. One player being a bit too connected to other players.... How to do it? I have no idea. I'm not a programmer. But in theory, it could work
could you use this type of analyses to detect which cancer clusters metastasized from which?
Holy shoot that's a brilliant idea!
@@PBAmygdala2021 , hey, thanks!
i think it's worth a try, right?
i've no idea how to do that though, heheh,
@@elgracko
In general, you could share the news with those doing research in cancer, or those making videos about such research, like the Sheekey Science Show here on RUclips.
@@PBAmygdala2021 , uh, yeah man, sorry for the delay, there was a math wiz cousin's wedding, hopefully third one's the charm, heheh,
a couple of my cousins studied medicine, i'll mention it to one of them who has a curious mind,
he's studying internal medicine, but it might stick, i dunno,
haven't heard of that channel, i'll check it out,
thanks btw,
@@elgracko cool!
You've got some great connects!
Today's graves will show a Timex or two, nose and nipple rings, some dentures, some stents which will thought of as ornamental and maybe a toe ring the mortuary attendant missed. Q: will the Timex still be ticking?
Don't forget the artificial hip joints and a few pacemakers.
Wouldn't most of today's graves simply contain ash? Cremation seems to be the most favored practice of getting rid of Grandpa's Leftovers these days.
@@lonestarr1490 That depends on the religious beliefs of the person. And their location. Cremation is very rare for Muslims but routine for those of Hindu faith.
@@peterjf7723 True, resale on those is low.
@@lonestarr1490 True, a new report by insurance firm Choice Mutual found 44% of Americans plan on being cremated, a 40% increase from the 1960s. Traditional burials were the second most popular choice, with 35% of Americans preferring the method. (USA Today)
Was I imaging things or was he saying koopa?
How do they know its not Pariedola like on mars
Look, up in the sky! It's a bird!! It's a plane!!

@@zzz_zzz_ZZZ_zzz_ZZZ_ZZZ_Z_z-ZZ Are you quite ok? Did I break you??
Adam Savage had a new satellite or Harrison Ford crashed in the upper ionosphere... haha!
1:00 One tumulus. Two or more tumuli. 'Tumulis' is an abomination.
Just to pile on Hank: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumulus.
Nice shirt Hank, but a similar dress would look better on you ;-)
01:30 seeing this picture brings up the age old question once again. Is it true that there are so many female archaeologists, because of their natural ability to digging up the past ?
And there was I thinking GenZ was a rap artist.
So.. is his shirt grey and blue or grey and green?
Engagement engagement engagement
Can i volunteer my time to study those tombs? I'd gladly stand around while a dude goes one by one
Satelite?
PERRY THE SATELITE???
@1:02 ''Prehistoric Africa''? No estimated date range, just prehistoric?
Did anyone actually prove these statistical hypotheses? I've got a lotta problems with this brief episode
Most people are getting cremated today though. Is it true? Take, say, around 8 billion people on the planet, and then within the scientific max life span of say 150, and you can graph the average life spans and how many people are passing away and leaving behind their remains, then, how many tombs would there be on the planet, and what would be their sizes, and where would you put them all?
Some pretty darn huge graveyards out there... makes you wonder what they'll look like in a thousand years.
@@moosemaimer Forests
@@zzz_zzz_ZZZ_zzz_ZZZ_ZZZ_Z_z-ZZ I stayed at a campground in Maine some years back and spent some time wandering around the place... I found a graveyard that was nearly 400 years old, and one of the graves had a tree growing out of it just in front of the headstone.
There are tunnels under Paris that are loaded with human skeletal remains, the bones separated and sorted into piles.
Please actually show the DATA, don't just talk about it. This would have been much better if you showed the clusters.
You know there are links in the show notes, right?

Judgement, in turn Acceptance, are fallacies because one is Informed and Functions under a unique Gold Standard birthed amongst varying blends of cultures and religions, not a vacuum🎈
Why is the comment section full of crypto bots?
The first 3 minutes could be 30 seconds, if you didn't repeat the same thing 10 times over.
Well my dumbass found it quite reassuring; usually I end up going back to the first 30 seconds of a video, of ANY length, almost regardless of its complexity, just bc I have undiagnosed AD(H)D.
You also contradicting yourself a little. Stating the Beja people are islamic. Can't be if they dated from 2000 years ago. Islam is the youngest religion, and only like 1300 years old.
Lets go Brandon!!
Please go back to fauxenews
I hope you seriously consider what you're saying and think about your life
Haha funnyfunny goodjokeman.
