data sharing

Three light blue boats with words over them with their bows pointing to the right (port). The farthest left boat reads "What is a data story?" Below that in a paragraph it reads "It’s a narrative given to a particular set of archaeological data, arranged to highlight an event or particular purpose". The center boat reads "What are archaeological data?". Below that in a paragraph reads "They’re a series of observations generated from archaeological inquiry that underpin a particular interpretation of the past". The farthest right boat reads "Why use this format?" Below that in a paragraph reads "Humans use stories to make sense of the world and stories contribute to a re-humanizing approach to archaeological data". The boats have dashed linse leaving them going off the image and they sit on a blue tinged version of a map of the San Francisco Bay.
