You already heard about the ceremony on Thursday but let’s rewind to Monday evening - I arrived back in Estonia with the artefacts! Although the preliminary study & datasets I put together on Roman & Italian artefacts found from Estonia for the exhibition are all certainly publication-worthy 1/3
With the exhibition, I wanted to invite viewers to think about how a fresh perspective, new contacts & expanded research opportunities can change long-established theories & positions.

The results are presented in Italian & English, read more in Estonian here: arheoloogia.ee/sundmused/ee... 4/4

Today’s the day - Estonian National Heritage Board annual awards ceremony is tonight! I’m nominated in the category “Find of the year” for my work alongside metal detectorist E. Järvekülg who found C11 coins & other artefacts from the island of Hiiumaa & reported the discovery. Pics: I. Leimus

Sometimes you get notified about new research unrelated to your work but impossible to not read. I present to you an article that appeared in the Journal of Baltic Studies @tandfresearch.bsky.social, the first decade of #discotheques in #Latvia (1973-1983) by Daina Bleiere: doi.org/10.1080/0162...

Buongiorno a Rovigo! This morning I presented my paper on Roman and Italian artefacts in Estonian #archaeology at Camera di Commercio Venezia #Rovigo. One of the nicest hall I have presented in & what an amazing team of organisers!

So interesting to learn about this: a manuscript bound in seal skin, with eight surviving pages, possibly among the earliest surviving books written in Norway. www.sciencenorway.no/cultural-his...
Eight pages bound in furry seal skin may be Norway's oldest book
The little book is so rare that the National Library of Norway is bringing in experts from around the world to learn more.

Uurin enda jaoks natuke uuemat teemat, valdav osa allikaid: sellised leiud on Eestis väga haruldased. Hakkasin siis tabelisse lisama. Praegu 250 rea e 568 leiu juures & ma alles osaliselt ühe kogu asju vaadanud. Idk äkki ‘haruldased’ asemel on need hoopiski vähe uuritud? (jah on see vastus btw)
