I'm guessing you're Genevieve. matched

Hi, how wait. matched

Nice to meet you. matched

How's it going? matched

how are you? matched

I'm parked outside a random house in Canty Clare, meeting Genevieve von Petzinger, a paleoanthropologist and rock art specialist. matched

I'm here because Genevieve invited me to join her on the program in April. matched

She was telling me that they've built an AI system to help identify caves where they might find ancient rock art, and she wanted to test it in Ireland. matched

Uh matched

So just talk me through what exactly we're doing. matched

Genevieve is being coy for a reason here, but I'll get into that later. matched

Okay, quick history lesson. matched

Going back in general periods from today to the end of known Irish history, we have the Normans, who came here 400 to 800 years ago. matched

The Vikings before them roughly a thousand years ago. matched

Early Christians before that matched

The Iron Age, sixteen hundred years ago, with brackets of course. matched

The Bronze Age, two and a half thousand years ago. matched

And then we come to the Neolithic, four and a half to six thousand years ago. matched

And this is where most people's knowledge sort of just ends. matched

We're talking New Grange, North and Douth. matched
