Using cheaper AI gen images in archaeological media can be inaccurate, misleading & jarring for audiences. Carefully planned, live action recon with an archaeological consultant will always benefit a project like this one for the BBC's "Attenborough and the Mammoth Graveyard".
Before Stonehenge: New discoveries are suggesting that Stonehenge was a island-wide effort, built to unify Britain in the face of a changing world. But what made the location so important? open.substack.com/pub/lostworlds…
Kicking off the new year, our paper by @leo_speidel et al. is out describing what to me is a breakthrough in ancient genomics. By using genealogies to study ancestry we can get much more resolution to study finer-scale history. We call this method Twigstats.
My friend Pontus Skoglund and his colleagues have JUST published this incredible new piece of research into Viking-era migrations - using ancient DNA and a brand new method called TWIGSTATS. This epic piece of research is matched by an epic cover of first 2025 issue of Nature!
Blood red flint! One of the many hundreds of pieces in @AbMuseums. This type of flint occurs in the Aberdeenshire area within a localised deposit of gravel. It was quarried during the Neolithic and Bronze Age to produce stunning arrowheads. 📸 @emmalouwynjones
For #flintfriday here's a beautiful handaxe from Lynford Quarry, shown to me by John Lord, who discovered the site while looking for flint. Excavations revealed a palaeochannel containing 1000s of stone artefacts and mammoth bones, dated to ~60,000 years old (late Neanderthals)!
Jose Iriarte has a wonderful new book out on 'The Archaeology of Amazonia', in print, but with open access version available online. bloomsbury.com/uk/archaeology…
Some images of beautifully preserved #medieval wicker #fishweirs/trap from #Hemington, #England. The area around Hemington is known to have a large number of early fish weirs. Weirs dating to the mid-4th millennium BC have been claimed to exist from the #RiverTrent.1/4
North Africa's new Neolithic: Fieldwork at the site of Oued Beht, Morocco, has identified a sophisticated culture with connections across the Straits of Gibraltar. What does it mean for thr story of the European Neolithic? open.substack.com/pub/lostworlds…
A multi-disciplinary archaeological survey at the site of Oued Beht, Morocco, has revealed a previously unknown 3400–2900 BC farming society. Published in @AntiquityJ! 👉 arch.cam.ac.uk/news/unknown-N…
Just published! Have you ever examined fiber impressions from a stylus inside the wedge of a cuneiform tablet? Our study shows how these impressions might serve as unique identifiers, similar to fingerprints, to link fragments written with the same stylus: doi.org/10.3280/oa-118…
Incredible discovery in the Duvensee Moor, Schleswig-Holstein! Dr. Harald Lübke and his team unearthed a 10,500-year-old paddle fragment. This rare find shows that hunters and gatherers were already navigating waters during the Mesolithic period. 1/2 #archaeology #LEIZArchaeology
Comparing current vegetation over Africa with a year ago ... Recent unusual rain over the southern Sahara Desert has resulted in a noticeable change in greenery.
In a cave on the Mediterranean island of Mallorca, researchers are investigating a now-submerged 25-foot-long bridge made of large limestone blocks that may have been constructed some 6,000 years ago and used for 500 or 600 years. archaeology.org/news/2024/09/0…
For those with acute vision, my thoughts on a distinct Neanderthal DNA lineage from Grotte Mandrin (Thorin’s)
Really proud to co-author this paper on the genetic history of the Rapa Nui people. The genomes of 15 Rapa Nui reveal admixture with ancient South Americans took place soon after first landfall w. no later drop in gen. diversity consistent with 'ecocide'. nature.com/articles/s4158…
More great work from the UKRI Life on the Edge team. Characterising marine palaeolandscape settlement remains one of archaeology's grand challenges. @UKRI_News @BradArcForensic @UniofBradford
Our paper out today in Cell Biology reports a new Neanderthal skeleton ("Thorin") from Mandrin (France) and the DNA from it shows that he represents a distinct population that stayed isolated for ~50,000 years in Europe from other Neanderthal groups. cell.com/cell-genomics/…
This is a great thread on the 'oldest pub' question. But what we can be sure of is that the oldest built structure that's now a pub (or part of a pub) is the Neolithic megalith incorporated into the Oxenham Arms in Devon (the South Zeal menhir)

I often join metal detecting pages on facebook to see the scale of looting ('legal' and otherwise) but sometimes I wish I didn't. This is happening *far* too often and there's no mechanism to stop it. What a ridiculous situation.
