Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 30/03/2026If anyone has any leads on archaeological jobs or projects needing staff, I’d be really grateful. I’m in Berlin and can’t relocate but can travel. 25 years as a human bioarchaeologist but can’t find a job despite multiple applications and I’m facing having to leave the profession this autumn 😢 000
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Looking for a job after my research scholarship ends (this month). I’m a bioarchaeologist with 20+ years experience in fieldwork and lab analysis, plus experience with CAD and Photoshop to produce plans, maps etc. I’m looking for something in Germany, my German is at B1/B2. Any leads would be great! 001
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Found out a few days ago that the Gerda Henkel have extended my scholarship by 6 months. Big relief and a chance to better finish off my research in Addis (though it’ll never be completely finished, what project is?). Still looking for my next job though, any opportunities very welcome! 040
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 23/12/2024Final research report for my Gerda-Henkel-Stiftung scholarship finished today, 18 reports written over the last two years. On to new things in January (if I can find a job!) 040
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 29/11/2024My Gerda-Henkel scholarship is almost over and I’m now looking for new projects. I’ve been an osteoarchaeologist for 20 years, and have extensive experience working on site and with museum collections in various countries. I’m based in Berlin but can travel. If anyone has any openings, let me know! 040
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 25/11/2024Recording (empty) graves in a cave behind a church, a service started and trapped me for 3 hours. Two of which I couldn’t do anything because all the equipment I needed was outside and nobody could come in either! 070
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Welcome to Addis! This is the view out of my bedroom window…at 22:41. Night night! 050
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 18/11/2024Safely arrived in Addis and welcomed with flowers from my colleagues in the National Museum 060
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 17/11/2024Leaving for Addis in a little under an hour. Sixth visit since Jan 2023 and almost certainly the last funded by my Gerda-Henkel-Stiftung scholarship. Looking forward to doing a bit of excavation this time, makes a change from being in the museum and excited to see what we will find! 040
Dr Katie White-Iribhogbe (formerly Tucker) @nowdrk.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Hello all! I never posted much over at the other place but maybe I should try and do more here. I’ll see if I can post some stuff during my upcoming fieldwork in Ethiopia with the SolZag Project (Solzagproject.org). I’ll never ever be close to being @flintdibble.bsky.social but I’ll try my best! 030
