Archaeologists searching through the ruins of the very ancient past are always happy to come across an epic poem or a historical chronicle, but very often the hardest documents to find are the ones that tell historians something about everyday life.

The new Open Access volume is the Proceedings of the 2021 International Obsidian Conference and is published as ARF Contributions #70. It was edited by Johnson, Freund, and Tripcevich and contains 7 chapters and 28 supplemental data files. escholarship.org/uc/item/75c6... #obsidian #geochemistry
