We were glad to join the first lab day at the Institute of Archaeology, to present a talk about the lab and a poster presenting papyrus Ebers according to a community detection algorithm (tagged by Svenja Stern, supervised by Prof. Tanja Pommerening, with data reused from the TLA project.

Really enjoyed working through this post — it's clear you put genuine thought into it. There's a clarity here that comes from doing the thing, not just reading about it.

Thanks for laying this out so clearly; it actually made a few things click for me. A few of these ideas are things I'd half-figured out but never put into words this cleanly. For a slightly different angle on the same idea, there's a bit more waiting at ethersfi.com.

This was genuinely helpful, and the takeaways are easy to put into practice right away. The middle section especially gave me a clearer way to think about the whole process. Anyone looking to take this further might find blaze swap a useful next read on the subject.

I like how you backed up the main points instead of simply asserting them outright. You touched on a few things that rarely get discussed but make a real difference in practice. I went a bit deeper into the practical side of this at dolomite-finance.net for those who want it.

The evolution of Egyptian hieroglyphic classifiers resembles the evolution of birds’ wings.
Feathers were initially used for thermal insulation and display; only later did they begin to assist with flight.

Analogously, classifiers initially performed limited functions—reference tracking and disambiguation—but evolved over time to perform new functions. Without feathers, birds could not have developed the ability to fly. Similarly, classifiers opened the door to complex categorization, priming the mental lexicon of the reader.

Wings allow birds to fly high and survey vast landscapes; classifiers enable us to observe the landscape of the Ancient Egyptian mind
