I had a great time this weekend at @postmedarch.bsky.social presenting on the designing utopia project (excavating an Owenite community in Lanarkshire) with @bromolloy.bsky.social and Kieran Manchip, and hearing amazing research from all the fabulous SPMA-ers!

The US has, consistently, been the biggest source of pain and suffering in the World since WW2.

Theoretical Archaeology Group 2025 Conference in York, 17th - 19th December. Submit your abstract for “In theory, it was a great idea”: The Challenges of Practical Archaeological Action in the Real World by 1st August 2025 to Brodhie Molloy at bmim2@leicester.ac.uk or Tânia Casimiro at tania.casimiro@stir.ac.uk .Theoretical Archaeology Group 2025 Conference in York, 17th - 19th December. Submit your abstract for “In theory, it was a great idea”: The Challenges of Practical Archaeological Action in the Real World to Brodhie Molloy at bmim2@leicester.ac.uk or Tânia Casimiro at tania.casimiro@stir.ac.uk .

Session description: It’s time! You successfully got the grant you spent months applying for. The project is planned down to timings and toilet breaks. Connections with people and organisations are made. You are ready to deliver and… Crash! Bang! Oh no! Something has gone wrong. Our projects often have things that go wrong or do not work out. But as practitioners we seldom admit this, especially not in official forums like a conference. However, this is a very normal thing to occur. Humans are messy. Messy things often require messy responses.

This session looks to open a conversation on our ‘failings’ in projects and how we can look at these, and to each other, for future solutions. We invite papers and discussants to join us in this conversation about the reality of archaeological projects in the contemporary world. We welcome discussions on the challenges faced in a wide range of archaeological projects, including social, ecological, and community-driven initiatives, as well as those involving heritage management, digital archaeology, education, and policy-driven work, among others. We will foster a space to network with others working in the fields of community and public-based engagement, offering comfort in the fact that we are not alone in this sector, and its associated struggles (funding, access, needs etc.). We are hoping this session will provide an opportunity for learning where we can exchange tips, tools and a sense of camaraderie.

As organisers, we are not afraid to admit that our projects, at times, have failed. We hope you won’t be afraid too!

This shows how archaeological data has been manipulated to promote racist politics & how archaeological expertise can be mobilized in service of ‘genetic indigenisation’. It highlights archaeology’s vulnerability to misuse & challenges assumptions about anti-expert discourse in far-right spaces

And it's gone... (not until after somebody had clearly filled in the prior removed part with pen mind you!) I only hope whomever put it there in the first place can come and replace it...

I, and several others, have written an open letter to the UK's largest archaeological organisations requesting they take a stand and publicly affirm their support for the trans community. This open letter was signed by over 700 archaeologists before it was sent today. Read it in full below 👇

You can show your support for striking workers with proceeds of sales going to Brum bin strike fund. Workers facing pay cut, some up to £8g a year, support the strike. Get ‘em here tufac.bigcartel.com
