#RomanSiteSaturday - The Tawern Temple Complex, a reconstructed Gallo-Roman sanctuary near Trier in Germany. The sanctuary, dedicated to Mercury, was built in the 1st century AD above the road connecting Divodurum and Augusta Treverorum and remained in use until the end of the 4th century AD.

The really maddening thing about how history is taught, for me, is that it is a *story*. People love stories! Dates are meaningless, especially when you're young*, but stories are fascinating and if we taught to the story instead of the date people love history so much more than they do.

Council of University Classical Departments @cucd.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

Please sign and share widely! After the devastating news about the planned cuts at Cardiff, the students have got the ball rolling to save their Ancient History programme. It is a very fine department: student numbers are strong, the staff team is fantastic. There is no rationale. chng.it/G5SMYxNbMQ

Umberto Albarella STOP THE GENOCIDE! @umbertoalbarella.bsky.social · 01/01/2025

The year 2024 saw an appalling act of cultural vandalism being enacted. In 2025, those responsible for such an affront to the city of Sheffield should pay the price for their insulting decision & resign. Please share & like the link. @sheffielducu.bsky.social ucu.group.shef.ac.uk/campaigns/st...

So, liebe #IchBinHanna, jetzt musst Du Dich entscheiden! Willst Du (a) die Professur als einzig respektable Position in der dt. Wissenschaft oder (b) Dich völlig ambitionslos gemütlich im Mittelbau #einkuscheln, wo die Arbeit auf Dauerstellen nur was zählt, wenn Du weiterhin Prof werden willst?

Gemütlich im Mittelbau #einkuscheln?! Ihr wisst: Ich habe #IchBinHanna gestern im Wissenschaftsausschuss des NRW-Landtags vertreten. Was ich da alles gesagt hab? 1 🧵! Da ich vermute, dass Euch das besonders interessiert, fange ich mal mit meiner Reaktion auf das Einkuscheln an. (1/8)

I am quite late this year—although better late than never, I guess—, but I decided to do an advent calendar with ancient Egyptian objects. What better way to start the calendar than with my favourite goddess, Taweret? 1/2 www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...
