Thank you so much. 🙏 It was great fun and a valuable learning experience to publish with JRA.
It might be a bit nerdy, but I am extremely proud of my Lucanian jumper. #Archaeology 🏺 #AcademicSky
Working on this paper was great fun. It also offers a sneak peek at a chapter from a volume that will be published soon. Stay tuned! #Archaeology 🏺 www.routledge.com/Tracing-the-...
I thought that a geophysics survey would involve less physical activity... 😏 Nevertheless, I am extremely glad to be back in the peaceful town of Velia-Ascea in Campania with the @unisalzburg.bsky.social field project. #Archaeology 🏺
All that glitters is... gold. My @unisalzburg.bsky.social colleagues have discovered an incredible set of Bronze Age jewellery on Aegina. I am very much looking forward to their publications. #Archaeology 🏺 www.plus.ac.at/news/bronzez...
Thank you so much for the kind invitation to talk about the Catarinella Askos in Venosa. Having spent the past two years researching this extraordinary vessel, it was truly special to see it back in the museum. #Archaeology 🏺 www.instagram.com/museiparchim...
