Its a shame he destroyed such an important Archaeological site that he doesn't even own.

A hoard of 321 “mint condition” silver coins, uncovered during excavations for the Sizewell C power plant, has been donated to Suffolk County Council’s Archaeological Service for safekeeping.

This is very off topic from my usual posts, but I am a big fan of when in theme parks rollercoasters are themed to fit the area and land around them in a natural way, instead of just being plain tracks on a field.

Archaeological hotbeds.

Just searching around to see if there was a similar one for Brochs and found this site that allows you to select for Barrows and other Archaeological sites.

#31DaysOfGraves Day 22 Landscape: An archaeological landscape at Govan Old following this year's dig.

This #25in25, we’re revisiting East Renfrewshire in 2002, where we excavated a palisaded enclosure which was dated to the early medieval period. This is exciting because ‘palisaded enclosures’ have been around since the Late Bronze Age, but ours proves that they continued into the historic period.

Castles, museums and archaeological parks were the most visited sites in #Albania ardipulaj.com/castles-muse...

So immensely proud of the work done by colleagues and the wonderful @sydney.edu.au archaeology students who were part of the Paphos Theatre Archaeological Project 2025 study season over the past three weeks in Cyprus.
Exciting publication news soon too.

... Those close social bonds can be stifling and intrusive. There will be no archaeological proof of this, but if reputation is this crucial to survival, being "different" in any way or threatening your family's reputation will be strongly discouraged.

Simon's method of death is called the Blood Eagle - one of the most brutal execution methods, only for the worst betrayers. There's no archaeological evidence of it ever being done but it's attested to in 9 sagas. Here's how its done www.smithsonianmag.com/history/did-...

Found myself under a dark moonless sky at Moundville Archaeological Park with fog billowing around and two comets above.

- The archaeological museum inside of a cave... I looked for hours and hours. I can picture right where everything is.

The entry way to that was wading through a river that had giant amethyst in and around it. Lots of minnows.

Great @archaeological.org talk looking at new analyses of cattle material from Çatalhöyük by @uncertainarch.bsky.social from @harvard.edu. Modelling shows skew towards female cattle in later periods, shifts to Konya(?) plain, and the suggestion of garden hunting as a strategy. Lots to think about.
