The fireplace in Thetford that could transform our understanding of human evolution.

When an archaeologist went for a nap beside an ancient water hole in Suffolk, he made a discovery beyond his wildest dreams: a fireplace 400,000 years old, writes Emily H Wilson.

I’ve had a nice little social media break and it has really helped me so much. I would occasionally drop in on here or insta, but I had severe restrictions on how much time I could spend online and my mental health has improved. I’m still extremely stressed but I’m not spiraling like I was before.

Thinking of studying for a PhD? I'd be happy to hear from anyone considering research into British or Irish prehistory, monuments, radiocarbon dating, heritage. Part-time, distance options. There are funding schemes here at @uniofexeterhass.bsky.social - but be quick, deadlines are in Jan/Feb!

Got the Christmas tree up and decorated! I love my weird little tree and it’s not Christmas without my cute gremlin topper and the Tardis on the branches.

This right here ⬇️ please support your local library and stop stealing books!
AND supporting your local library is super important! If you actually DO want books to be available to everyone, the library *already exists* and is staffed by the people who are deep in the trenches of fighting censorship! Supporting the library is doing actual good for your community!

Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

The more white wing media at the Times and the Post try to gaslight people about what Kirk stood for, the more social media accounts, and new media journalists will continue posting receipts.

Great talk today @tessmachling.bsky.social! Would be amazing to see that (ring) in person, but I definitely think it was an hair ornament or earring too flimsy to be worn on a finger all the decoration would have been smashed. It’s such a shame it ended up in private hands
