Still, lovely to attend the annual Sara Champion lecture to hear Matt Hancock draw (in both senses) conclusions about Bronze and Iron Age metalwork (love those sword stamps!) and also say hi to @mattpope.bsky.social @reblambert.bsky.social @boothicus.bsky.social @archaedelle.bsky.social and others!

Today I had to step back from doing something I enjoy. That serves the sector that I work in, and is focused on my interests and nerdy joy of editing. But realistically my workload is ever-increasing, I'm letting people down and not doing any of my own research.

So - if anyone would like to fill my boots & work with a dream team as co-editor of the @prehistoricsociety.bsky.social journal, I'd be very happy to chat and/or pass your name on!

@prehistoricsociety.bsky.social @joanavaldez.bsky.social Some of the brilliant World Heritage Site prehistoric rock-art in Alta from last month's Arctic Norway trip. Images of reindeer, hunting, boats, bears, bear-dens, fish, all in great profusion. The earliest panels are from around 5000 BCE.

The annual joint lecture with @prehistoricsociety.bsky.social by Dr Sophie Adams (British Museum) on 'The Massive Melsonby Iron Age Hoard' was well attended. We got to know all the aspects of this hoard and there was a lively discussion afterwards. #Archaeology
