  1. Next semester I'll be teaching our first semester course on the #archaeology of the #MiddleEast, which feels like quite a responsibility – for most students it will be their very first class at university, and their first study of the field they've signed up to spend the next 3-5 years of their life on!

    So, first week, what do I have them read? What's the most inspiring, short text on the #AncientNearEast?

  6. Fars/Persis in western Iran was the home province of the Achaemenid empire, with a similar land area to Newfoundland. When I received my PhD in 2018, how many rural sites from Achaemenid Fars had been excavated and published (orders of magnitude only, I will post the answer Wednesday). No web searching please! #iranistik #iranianStudies #ancientNearEast #archaeology

  10. ICYMI: 🏺 How did light shape religious experience in ancient Mesopotamian temples?

    We investigated this by reconstructing and analysing lighting conditions in four common types of sacred architecture from the ancient Near East.

    Using standardised 3D models, we simulated how natural light entered temple spaces.
