  6. #FindsFriday! In 2021, we carried out an exciting excavation in Großmugl, where we documented settlement remains from the #BronzeAge and #IronAge. The #EarlyBronzeAge #pottery included several highlights: vessels decorated with rows of impressions, incised lines, and punctuated dots, some filled with white inlay, like the fragments shown here! #Archaeology #Ceramics #ArchaeologicalFinds #Excavation #EuropeanPrehistory #MaterialCulture #Austria #History #Österreich

  9. Reconnecting with Deep Time and stillness, at the remaining earthworks of an Iron Age hill fort at Pulpit Hill, in the Chiltern hills of Buckinghamshire. When the white noise & demands on attention become too much, feeling the passing of time over earth that was once so urgent and strategic, now overgrown with beech trees and carpets of leaves and moss, can help me come back to life again.

  14. Together with runologist Lisbeth Imer from the National museum in Denmark, I have been taking Christmas in advance by studying the runic bracteates from the Vindelev hoard. We have made some interesting observations, in example discovering that one inscription found in 1852 (but was unreadable until now) was a poorly made copy of one of the Vindelev inscriptions.

    More exciting news will be revealed later.

  15. I've just moved to the shiny new archaeo.social server, so thought I should retoot an #introduction. After a couple days can I still be #newhere?

    I'm a #phd student at #uwtsd mainly focussed on Near Eastern #archaeology (go #archaeodons!). My thesis is on the #ironage #ivory from #hasanlu in #iran. I also work in #devon as an #archaeologist and #archivist for #SWARCH.
