The heading image for our new Data Story 30 Days to an Article: Archaeological Inspiration for Your Writing. It includes the title in light blue across the top, the words "A Digital Data Story in White on a dark blue background on the left edge". The center area has five sticky notes with a pushpin in them with information about the Data Story. The first light blue outlined sticky note on the upper left reads "How to get started on your writing", next to a it an indigo one reads "A 31-Day calendar of writing prompts". The one on the farthest right is also in light blue and reads "Using search terms for inspiration from data". The bottom line has another indigo outlined one that reads "narrative examples from open data" next to a pink outlined one that reads "how to share work safely on social media". These sit on a white background and have the Open Context logo (two rhombii on their sides to form a book with one dark blue side--left--and one light blue side--right). Underneath that reads "The Alexandria Archive Institute". These sit together underneath the Data Story heading to it's lower right.

30 Days to an Article: Archaeological Inspiration for Your Writing

July 29, 2023 by Paulina Przystupa

This exercise is best suited to those with an interest in public archaeology, writing as practice, or using archaeological data as inspiration. Users should have a basic understanding of archaeological data types to understand what platforms to search, but little previous experience with archaeology is required.

On the left hand side is a perpendicular banner that reads in white "A Digital Data Story" and below that in smaller light blue lettering "Of Mycenaean Men: Public Archaeology Book Club". Both text are on a dark blue background. The rest of the image is a faded version o a book that looks like a neural network with many connecting lines and nodes; with a rainbow coloring in the lines and a dark blue to black fade in the background that is the AAI Reads Logo. On top of these spattered about are Mycenaean masks that look like a person smirking and swords that look like they're stabbing into the pages of the book. The image associates this Data Story with the previous blog series and signals it's the testing phase through it's more kooky imagery.
