Looking forward to reading this one!

Israel has obliterated the mausoleum of Simon Peter, the Apostle of Christ, in Shama, southern Lebanon. A sacred site that has stood for over 2,000 years, now lies in ruins. This is not “self-defense”. This is a war crime and a crime against history.

A really exciting site, and pleasure to be part of such a wonderful team!

Since I missed #NationalIllustrationDay2024 , here is my contribution - a selection of unpainted late 4th millennium Uruk sherds from Kani Shaie, #Kurdistan and some beautiful painted cups from the early 3rd millennium there. A lot changed in only 300 years! #archaeology

Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) app submitted! Bit of a whirlwind 🌪️ Now to wait (and rest!) 🤞🏼💪🏼 #archaeology

Really makes me happy to see the #archaeology community reassembling here after a far too long hiatus!

A brief introduction to me and my research, and throw-back to an exciting summer of Early Bronze Age #archaeology at Kani Shaie, #Kurdistan
