The Tomb of Eagles: Can You Help Us?
The Crowdfunder goes live on March 1st for 6 weeks and ends on 12th April. The QR code takes to where you can donate. The South Ronaldsay & Burray Development Trust is undertaking a unique project to purchase the Tomb of the Eagles as a community buyout which is a first in Scotland for a scheduled monument. This will secure the reopening of the site which has been closed for over four years as result initially of the pandemic and then the Simison family owning and running the site and visitor’s centre retiring.

This week my employer of 17 years English Heritage announced 200 jobs lost, and my Alma mater Cardiff Uni announced 400 jobs lost. The planning system that protects our heritage and provides thousands of archaeology jobs is at risk, and Higher Education is in free fall more generally #ThisIsFine

The exquisitely beautiful Happisburgh handaxe. A utilitarian tool worked from glossy black flint half a million years ago!
Found in 2000 by a man walking his dog on a Norfolk beach.

I don't see many long threads on here, but I'll try one - it's about Holbein's Ambassadors, his 1533 masterpiece in the National Gallery. It's often presented as a great mystery, but I think once we understand the circumstances in which it was made, its meaning becomes clearer.
