I’m also rather delighted to find this book: “Does it fart? The Definitive Field Guide to Animal Flatulence.”

Here’s one … a scholarly paper on penis rings authored by … S. Wang?!

Bored? Let’s play a game… 1. Go to Google Scholar 2. Search for the rudest or silliest topic you can think of 3. Giggle like a 13 year old at all the serious papers and attempted humorous titles pertaining to said topic 4. Quote post this with your best discovery

I’ve just remembered the time my darling offspring conflated my disability with my doctorate, and told our friends that I have a bad case of “PDHD”…

This is a brilliant listen. Jacqueline McKinley of Wessex Archaeology on today’s episode of The Life Scientific. She explains things beautifully, in an all-too a rare piece of public exposure for the importance of work in the commercial archaeology sector ☺️ www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Colin Renfrew has passed away. A hugely influential figure in archaeology throughout the 20th and early 21st centuries. Here are a few photos of him from about 15years ago, when I was working on his Keros Project.

If you haven't read this important document for UK #archaeology then do, and read the heartbreaking appendix of comments. We shouldn't be here. Share, discuss, engage with CIFA, join a Union. Ask why we can't have sustainable, prodessional wages within a sector worth £382 billion pounds. 🏺

I recently tried my hand at replicating an Ancient Egyptian core-formed glass perfume bottle. I did this in a tiny handmade bead furnace (something like a pizza oven but even smaller), showing that such processes can be done in structure which leave relatively little archaeological evidence.

Small perfume bottle made of opaque blue glass with trailing decoration in yellow, white and turquoise.

Waiting for Guardian and Radio 4 to run hand-wringing features about recent popularity of Bluesky and whether it’s “just an echo chamber“.

Starting out on this new platform feels like when you buy a nice new notebook and you are almost scared to start writing in it, in case you ruin it.
