“…However, with the development of historical GIS, research methods have changed from qualitative to quantitative. Scholars have used cultural heritage data such as intangible cultural heritage [23,24], traditional villages [25,26], ancient landscapes [27], human relics [28,29], street names [20,30], etc., combined with GIS spatial analysis methods to discuss the temporal and spatial distribution and influencing factors. Y Ding [31] analyzed the temporal and spatial distribution of Zhejiang's national intangible cultural heritage and found that it showed a tendency gathering, and its temporal and spatial distribution was affected by the development of Zhejiang's natural geographic environment and historical culture.…”

Museum cultural relics represent a special material cultural heritage, and modern interpretations of them are needed in current society. Based on the catalogue data of cultural relics published by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, this paper analyzes the continuity and intermittentness of cultural relics in time series by using the method of continuity judgment of cultural relics, analyzes the aggregation and migration of cultural relics in space by using the method of spatial analysis, and then uses cosine similarity to explain the similarity distribution in space and time. The results show that the overall distribution of cultural relics exhibits the characteristics of class aggregation, dynasty aggregation and regional aggregation. From the perspective of a time scale, cultural relics have different “life cycles”, displaying continuity, intermittentness, and similarity. From the perspective of a spatial scale, the cultural relic distribution forms a small “cultural communication circle”, showing aggregation, migration, and similarity. The temporal and spatial distribution of cultural relics exhibited more similar characteristics among dynasties that were closer together than those that were far away.

“…The continuous making and remaking of these scaffolds in time means that archaeological data have a capacity to bite back in ways which can be difficult to anticipate (Wylie, 2018). As Monteiro and colleagues (2018) underline, scaffolding is performative, dynamic, provisional and decentred rather than static and predictable, and it is capable of making not only the data but the discipline itself as Nikolaou's (2017) insightful investigation of archaeological field notebooks and their impact on the development of archaeological discipline shows.…”

Purpose Information science research has begun to broaden its traditional focus on information seeking to cover other modes of acquiring information. The purpose of this paper is to move forward on this trajectory and to present a framework for explicating how in addition to being sought, existing information are made useful and taken into use. Design/methodology/approach A conceptual enquiry draws on an empirical vignette based on an observation study of an archaeological teaching excavation. The conceptual perspective builds on Andersen’s genre approach and Huvila’s notion of situational appropriation. Findings This paper suggests that information becomes appropriable, and appropriated (i.e. taken into use), when informational and social genres intertwine with each other. This happens in a continuous process of (re)appropriation of information where existing information scaffolds new information and the on-going process of appropriation. Originality/value The approach is proposed as a potentially powerful conceptualisation for explicating information interactions when existing information is taken into use rather than sought that have received little attention in traditional models and theories of human information behaviour.
