Talk 2 ends with a plea for information! Those of you in local societies - look through your archives & find women who have contributed to your area's heritage. Since publishing in CA 427 Tatiana and Rebecca have already received info about female archaeologists - but we need to find more! #CALive26

You can read more about the ‘Mothers of Romano-British Studies’ in CA 427: the-past.com/feature/expa... #CALive26

Delighted to attend #CALive26 yesterday and speak with Tatiana on our project researching women pioneers of Roman archaeology in the 19th & 20th centuries

Interesting immersive experience at Excel London today #Tutankhamen Loved the approach to #heritageinterpretation for ancient #Egypt but too much queuing between sections

Lucky enough to spend Wednesday accompanying a spectacular Trajanic #Roman aureus on loan from @nationalmuseumsscotland to @trimontiumtrust in Melrose together with colleagues from Scottish #History and #Archaeology in the Spring sunshine! #museums #romancoin #trajan

Not quite a #bloodmoon but fascinating to watch the moon rise last night

Fascinating and terrifying at the same time- spent today learning all about #asbestos in relation to #museum collections @ntlmuseumsscot.bsky.social #asbestosawareness

Lucky enough to be at the opening of this exhibition at Queen's Gallery, Holyrood Palace. Fascinating overview of photographic techniques over the last century. Would have benefitted from more photographs in Scotland and some imagery or artefacts of the cameras they used at the time

Have I missed #caturday?? Here's mine 🤩

Early start at the British Museum today for the launch of the Portable Antiquities Scheme annual report #Museum #metaldetecting

Great to see this article on the Galloway Hoard in the guardian #Viking #rune #archaeology www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

One of the benefits of working in a multidisciplinary museum is that I occasionally indulge my passion for baking. Dinosaur cakes this time 🎂 🤩

Tonight's the night that Blomuir #Neolithic Passage Grave in #Orkney is on #DiggingForBritain - BBC 2 8pm. Victorian diggers removed enough stone for a house, but still left us some amazing archaeology!

Attended my first #AIASCS conference remotely, presenting on #Roman women at the #LimesCongress Struggled with the hybrid element when attending other sessions, sadly

Sad day yesterday at the funeral of Gordon Maxwell, but I count myself as fortunate to have worked closely with him over a number of years and learnt a huge amount which led to my PhD research and publications

Offering up a little bronze Lar from Bewcastle to the new social media gods 😅 I’m slowly trying to migrate over my follows from Twitter, but recommendations for whom to follow here very welcome!

The Frank's Casket - spectacular early 8th century whales bone box probably made in Northumbria and in the ##SilkRoads exhibition in the British Museum

Saving the best until last... Galloway Hoard vessel on display in the #SilkRoads exhibition looking fabulous - representing the far north-west of the Silk Roads connection @ntlmuseumsscot.bsky.social

Perhaps my favourite of Elizabeth Hodgson's bsky.app/profile/beyo... outputs is her article on local fairies archive.org/details/tran...

Fabulous to see Rhynie highlighted as one of the key places in the #SilkRoads exhibition @northernpicts.bsky.social #BritishMuseum

Fabulous to see the Silk Roads exhibition at the British #Museum - incredible artefacts conveying a brilliantly complex story in an accessible manner

Spent yesterday afternoon taking three 16 year old round the National Museums Scotland discussing the aspects of the galleries which cover their Higher History topics. I learnt a lot too, especially about 19th century migration & role of Scots in Canadian fur trade #museum #History
