Together with the Cathole Cave work I think I've accidentally become one of the leading experts in Ice Age microfauna from South Wales! ubss.org.uk/publications...

I analysed the Microfauna from these sites back in 2014 and had great fun identifying arctic lemmings, tundra vole, Norway lemmings (and the standard array of generic voles!).

YES! Don't forget to check in on Horace the 15,000 year old Elk (there is a rather charming cartoon about him in the Martin Brown exhibition as well!).

I am THRILLED to announce that BBC Radio 3 have let me make 5 whole episodes w the incredibly talented producer Becky on prehistoric instruments. They are ‘sound illustrated’ contemplations, so they are wild and personal as well as archaeological. And I get to open with my amazing uncle singing :)

Sometimes, with colleagues, I dabble in Forensic taphonomy, and this is one of this occasions! This article explores how damage and fractures on bones influences the physiochemical composition of bone over time, which may impact in PMI estimation! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I really enjoyed reading this paper exploring the possibility that elevated d15N values may be linked to the consumption of meat that was rotten and maggot filled! Definitely lots more work to do as the authors point out, but an interesting idea! www.science.org/doi/full/10....
