Impossible Precision: A Scientific Study of Ancient Egyptian Stone Vessels | #45 Dr. Max Fomitchev-Zamilov

So get a cobbler's job and you can always, you know, pursue your passion, you know, vocationally. And, you know, granted it's not easy and it requires means because, you know, scientific equipment is expensive, you know, time is expensive. But at the same time, you know, when you're motivated by curiosity, you get somewhere. You know, that's how I feel.

Because a lot of things we're taught or we hear and we take for granted, they don't make sense to me. And I refuse to buy them. And if I can formulate my own opinion, I might as well.

Yeah, there are several steps I would like to take that are, you know, interesting. You know, directly continuing this work that I've done, clearly looking at some of the other artifacts from museum collections would be very helpful. Specifically, I've heard that Adam Young and, you know, Carol Ipoka went and scanned a bunch of artifacts from the Petri Museum.

So I'd be very, very curious to run those scans through my software in MATLAB and see, you know, how these objects fare, how do they classify, which category they fit. Or, you know, just going and scanning some of those objects is also a possibility.

So I guess that's one of the things I would like to do, to subject a larger set of objects from known collections, you know, with unquestionable prominence where everybody agrees when they were and how they were found and what, you know, archaeological context

I have reached out to Adam. I haven't heard much from him about that. Carolee, I think, is writing on his own paper, so I think he's going to maybe share stuff when he's done. Okay. Just wait patiently.
