  1. We've made a big loop and now it's time to head east, stopping at the village of Çavuşin and the church of St John the Baptist, a rock cut church dating to the early 6th century (hear that, my #LateAntiquity & #Byzantine peeps??). It may be the oldest church in #Cappadocia 🇹🇷

  2. About to have my own session (that is, the one I'm speaking in) start at the 2026 International Congress of Byzantine Studies in Vienna. Going to be talking about the specific forms of visual historical memory promoted by particular styles of game and the effect that's having on modern perceptions of the Byzantine and medieval Caucasian worlds :)

  6. Kırşehir 🇹🇷 was a Hellenistic settlement known as Mokissos. In the #Byzantine era, the emperor Justinian changed the name to Justinianopolis (oh, hey!). Today it is a city of about 163K. The nearby village of Seyfe is considered the geographical center of the world (sorry, Jerusalem!).
