Colin Renfrew has passed away. A hugely influential figure in archaeology throughout the 20th and early 21st centuries.
Here are a few photos of him from about 15years ago, when I was working on his Keros Project.

Bluesky academics, let’s get to know each other! Quote this & tell me: 1) a project you are working on & 2) an odd idea/theory you aren’t working on but keep thinking about
1) food economies of Bronze Age Ireland
2) relationship between food, death, and rebirth. Parallelism with fermentation?

2) is it spelled Acheulean or Acheulian?

Scabbard Plates • Antrim • Iron Age
These beautifully decorated bronze scabbard plates were part of an important hoard of Iron Age objects found in a bog near Ballymena, Antrim, in the 19th century.
The surface is intricately decorated in the La Tène style.
See them in the Ulster Museum, Belfast.

Hey y’all! So I started this account last year (recommended by @ruthfcarden.bsky.social!) and shortsightedly didn’t interact with it. But I’m here now and excited to be here!
