If things had gone differently.
Palaeoloxodon creutzburgi, one of the several elephants that used to live on Mediterranean islands, greeting a baby in an Ancient Greek vase. Small island elephants around the world went extinct around the time of human arrival, but I wonder, what if they didn’t.

As an extra- I originally set out to do Brine Shrimp, but after much more struggle than I'd anticipated with the animal I ended up tossing the drawing in the end and replacing the prompt. For anyone who enjoys pink-colored brine shrimp, enjoy

Landback is about governance and stewardship, not European and capitalist notions of ownership.
Comparing it to Naziism is the height of settler anxiety, propaganda, and bullshit. Nobody wants to sink to your level guys. Stop projecting.

An archaeology break with a thread !
I want you to look at this lovely photo which belongs to the National Museums Northern Ireland. It's a turf travois up in 19th c Glendun. Now zoom on the harness ( welcome to my life ). Notice anything ? It's all straw

Well, don't think I already had enough coffee this morning to comment on Neolithic Snake Wrestling™, but these loincloths (side note: among the figurines known from GöbekliTepe & vicinity, mostly male individuals seem depicted wearing belts) may well be inspired by those #Catalyhöyük murals, fwiw. 🏺

A two headed calf skull, part of the baker and brothwell collection held at the University of York
The condition is known as polycephaly and is incredibly rare.

#Archaeology🏺 isn't about dusty old objects in museum showcases - it's about reconstructing and understanding the past people's lives.
But to really bring those people back to life, sometimes it takes the pencil, the brush and the virtuosity of a real illustrator.

Uh-oh, someone's not happy with his order at the thermopolium! 😆
One of my many history themed illustrations. Inspired by recent discoveries in Pompeii, I wanted to draw a "snapshot" of a street with people in ancient Rome.

Amazing fossil alert.
Jurassic salamander from China. You can see the soft tissue of the eye, gills, limbs, even the folds of its tail. And its last meal its stomach…
