Was giving a presentation on some of my recent and ongoing archaeological work at a conference today and unexpectedly came across this promotional poster for my forthcoming book ‘Once Upon This Land: Archaeology in British Columbia and the Stories it Tells’.

That's a wrap on the paper sessions! Thank you to all of our amazing presenters & attendees! We'll see you tonight at the Banquet for awards! 🎉 (Bonus pic of #archaeologists lining up for coffee) #caa2025

Extremely satisfied with the environmental archaeology session I hosted at the #CAA2025 ! Beautiful range of papers about charcoal, seeds, soils, animal bones & DNA. Especially happy with the fact that many presenters were graduate students or ECRs @can-arch.bsky.social

The student poster session is running all afternoon in the Great Hall! Grab a coffee & immerse yourself in new research 😍 #caa2025

If you're at the BC Studies conference today, you can catch IPIA PhD student Steph Halmhofer talking about some of her research at 10:30!

Had a good session at @can-arch.bsky.social this morning, but had to rush home to help with a broken bathroom pipe. The other presentations on Beothuk archaeology, fires and evidence for prostitution in St. John's, and an accidentally cemetery disturbance were all amazing. Great work being done.

The 2025 conference is off to a great start! We started the day with speakers & a performance by Inuit performance group Kilautiup Songuninga, who performed throat singing and Inuit drumming to open the event! Truely amazing! 🏺 #CAA2025

nope — no-one digs up Indigenous, Native American, First Nations or African ancestors without consent today as for Europe you have it upside-down: the coroner strictly controls excavation of human remains but there’s no such regulation or transparency in museums apart from post-1948 human tissue

⚠️ Attention #archaeologists ! Just a reminder that the rooms reserved for #CAA2025 conference delegates at the Alt Hotel are now fully sold. The Alt has very kindly agreed to honour conference rates for any rooms outside our block, but they are completely sold out for Saturday May 3.
