The Digital Humanities have arrived at a moment when digital Big Data is becoming more readily available, opening exciting new avenues of inquiry but also new challenges. This pioneering book describes and demonstrates the ways these data can be explored to construct cultural heritage knowledge, for research and in teaching and learning. It helps humanities scholars to grasp Big Data in order to do their work, whether that means understanding the underlying algorithms at work in search engines, or designing and using their own tools to process large amounts of information.Demonstrating what digital tools have to offer and also what 'digital' does to how we understand the past, the authors introduce the many different tools and developing approaches in Big Data for historical and humanistic scholarship, show how to use them, what to be wary of, and discuss the kinds of questions and new perspectives this new macroscopic perspective opens up. Authored 'live' online with ongoing feedback from the wider digital history community, Exploring Big Historical Data breaks new ground and sets the direction for the conversation into the future. It represents the current state-of-the-art thinking in the field and exemplifies the way that digital work can enhance public engagement in the humanities.Exploring Big Historical Data should be the go-to resource for undergraduate and graduate students confronted by a vast corpus of data, and researchers encountering these methods for the first time. It will also offer a helping hand to the interested individual seeking to make sense of genealogical data or digitized newspapers, and even the local historical society who are trying to see the value in digitizing their holdings.The companion website to Exploring Big Historical Data can be found at www.themacroscope.org/. On this site you will find code, a discussion forum, essays, and datafiles that accompany this book.

Enchantment of Digital Archaeology

Raising the Dead with Agent-Based Models, Archaeogaming and Artificial Intelligence

The use of computation in archaeology is a kind of magic, a way of heightening the archaeological imagination. Agent-based modelling allows archaeologists to test the ‘just-so’ stories they tell about the past. It requires a formalization of the story so that it can be represented as a simulation; researchers are then able to explore the unintended consequences or emergent outcomes of stories about the past. Agent-based models are one end of a spectrum that, at the opposite side, ends with video games. This volume explores this spectrum in the context of Roman archaeology, addressing the strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities of a formalized approach to computation and archaeogaming.

The Online Trade in Human Remains and Why It Matters

People buy and sell human remains online. Most of this trade these days is over social media. In a study of this ‘bone trade’, how it works, and why it matters, the authors review and use a variety of methods drawn from the digital humanities to analyze the sheer volume of social media posts in search of answers to questions regarding this online bone trade. The answers speak to how the 21st century understands and constructs ‘heritage’ more generally: each person their own expert, yet seeking community and validation, and like the major encyclopedic museums, built on a kind of digital neocolonialist othering of the dead.

Discover the truth in God''s Word in this thought-provoking treatise on the fundamentals of Christianity.

Have you ever felt like you didn''t fit the mold of a typical Christian? Driven by many unique experiences and challenges, author Shawn Graham sought a deeper relationship with Christ. But after serious introspection and observing the status quo, Graham found his perspective didn''t align with the typical Christian pattern. His search for answers only led to more questions, until the day he decided to break free from the mold.

In A Typical Christian, Graham relates his personal experiences of walking in faith as a Christian and how his journey was not so typical. Leading an authentic conversation, Graham explores what it means to be a typical Christian and delivers a startling wake-up call along with a rebuke of the Christian elite. Revealing the truth in God''s Word, Graham challenges assumptions, heed the warning - this book is not suitable for those who are easily offended, and encourages readers to consider where they fit in.

Offering straightforward and bold statements that bring points of contention to the surface, the book is intended for:

Anyone who has left the Christian church.People who have been pushed aside or marginalized.Christians that don''t read the Bible.Weak leaders, false prophets, idolatrous slanderers.Faithful followers of Jesus.Pastors, elder boards, weekly pew warmers, and holiday participants.Perfect people and imperfect people.
