Don’t miss out on this month’s #experimentalarchaeology seminar @icarehb.bsky.social Dr. Susan Mentzer and Prof. Christopher Miller will share their insights into experimental geoarchaeology. Free and online for all. Sign up now: www.icarehb.com/lexa/

Amanzi Springs can be a cruel and unpredictable site. In the right hand corner is the edge of Deacon’s 1960s trench where he seemingly found no archaeology. In the top right is our current excavation, with artefacts 30cm below the surface. Just under our feet the whole time.

For #flintfriday I'm posting a non flint image. This is an illustration I did a few years ago inspired by the British lower palaeolithic (~500ka) site of Boxgrove, where there's evidence of horse hunting.

Just in time for #FlintFriday, the first ICArEHB LEXA Experimental Archaeology seminar is now free to view on Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=Bij2... #experimentalarchaeology #prehistory

For #FlintFriday an Acheulean handaxe from Slindon Bottom Sussex. Part of the Boxgrove palaeolandscape. Maybe more than 420,000 years old. On the limit of how heavy a tool my hand could handle, this was confidently made to undertake cutting and processing tasks, but did it play social roles too?
