I wrote this overview of studies about boundaries and borderscapes in Pharaonic Egypt for a special issue of Etudes et Travaux! Check it out, and I hope you’ll also read the incredible work so many of my colleagues are doing on this subject! www.etudesettravaux.iksiopan.pl/index.php/en...

If you are free next Tuesday at 6pm EST, the Toronto chapter of the AIA has very kindly given me a chance to talk about a new project I’ve been working on with Laurel Bestock: using declassified Cold War aerial photography to learn more about Egyptian archaeological sites! aiatoronto.ca/events

Really happy to see this article come out, as it was a joy collaborating with @brendanhainline.bsky.social, Serena Niccolini, and Maria Gatto on this work discussing political boundaries in the later Old Kingdom near the Nile’s First Cataract. www.etudesettravaux.iksiopan.pl/index.php/en...

I’m not very active on social media, but I do want to share this recent (though rather dense) publication by Maria Gatto and myself as part of the Borderscape Project. brill.com/view/journal...
