My dad and I published this paper this week in Archaeometry. It shows how you can avoid old wood effects when dating charcoal by using a bespoke Bayesian outlier model developed by my friends Mike Dee and Chris Ramsey a few years ago. We applied it to a Thai site. doi.org/10.1111/arcm.70105

Celebrating the opening of "The language of the goddesses" at Mamuz Asparn. It was a wonderful day!

Archaeology meets modern art in the exhibition’The language of the goddesses’, curated by Elisabeth von Samsonov and I. Looking forward to the opening on Saturday #MAMUZ Asparn!

One more week and we will open the exhibition “The language of the goddesses” at #Mamuz #Asparn. Elisabeth von Samsonov and I can’t wait to show how prehistoric figurines inspired modern art.

We are happy to share our pre-print on dating bone using a novel non-destructive protocol we developed. The paper is on the Biorxiv here (Luftensteiner et al. 2025): www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

New book “Mothering in archaeology” has arrived, with the chapter “Iron Age Motherhood as Social Institution and Lived Practice” by yours truly. Check it out here: www.taylorfrancis.com/books/edit/1...

Another piece of the puzzle: here, we use peptide-based sexing for insights into gendered mobility. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Just a tiny bit envious of the Kiel university’s very own megalith grave on campus.

Bitte weiterleiten! Das Center Interdisziplinäre Geschlechterforschung Innsbruck #CGI besetzt eine Dissertationsstelle im Doktoratskolleg "Geschlechter und Geschlechterverhältnisse", Bewerbungsfrist ist 17. 4.2025: lfuonline.uibk.ac.at/public/karri...

Another great day at #KielScales25: sessions on human mobility, Neolithic seascapes, or architecture as a microuniverse of prehistoric societies, among others, followed by @rebaysalisbury.bsky.social's inspiring keynote speech ‘Sex, Gender and the Third Science Revolution’. Thans to all presenters!

»Can we find gender diversity in European prehistory?« This question will be explored by @rebaysalisbury.bsky.social today at 6 pm in the last #keynote of #KielScales25. She gave us a little preview. More tonight: events.kielconference25.smart-abstract.com#/event/83447 #genderarchaeology #diversity

In a few minutes the Roundtable: ”Unearthing Bias: Confronting Sexism in Archaeology“ starts at the #KielScales25 Conference. @rebaysalisbury.bsky.social has conducted a survey on this topic in German-speaking countries. #payetatruelle #archeosexisme #archaeosexism #diversity #uniwien 🏺

Check out our new article on gender archaeology doi.org/10.1017/S095.... Here, we test the chromosomal sex of Early Bronze Age individuals from Franzhausen and Gemeinlebarn that were not conforming to the dominant gendered burial practices.

The Great Viking Survey is the most extensive study ever conducted on global perceptions of the vikings and their world. Your voice matters: no matter who or where you are, every response counts! Take the survey, spread the word, and be part of this groundbreaking project at vikingsurvey.org!

Not your Venus. - Nach dem ersten Blick in den neuen #Archäologie #Comic von Ulli Lust vergangene Woche folgt hier nun meine etwas ausführlichere Rezension (Spoiler: ich bin immer noch ziemlich begeistert): 🏺 trowelandpen.com/2025/03/13/f...

The opening of the German version of the Archaeo-Sexism exhibition was a great success. Clearly, there is interest in overcoming sexism in archaeology. We can all be part of the change 🙂
