🎙 It's exactly one year since @drrebeccaboyd.bsky.social chatted with me and @thebigelbee.bsky.social about Ireland's Viking-Age towns and Rebecca's new book, Exploring Ireland's Viking-Age Towns: Houses and Homes!

As always, a great morning in @experimentarchaeol.bsky.social last week. Marie and I took a fieldtrip to visit Aidan and Brendan and we all happily chatted about early medieval houses, crannogs and chronologies for hours!
Delighted to welcome to UCD CEAMC Dr Rebecca Boyd and Dr Marie-Therese Barratt, from the IAC team working on publishing Drumclay crannog, for a good long chat about early medieval roundhouses, their architecture, uses, and longevity

I'll be in Dublin next weekend to speak to @IAIarchaeo members. Much of my research is based on developer-led archaeological discoveries and I'm really looking forward to speaking about how we can interpret the data after it comes out of the ground.
