The material on display reveals long-distance connections and hybrid forms, including a Hellenistic-style Issaean cup with a hunting scene (very cool!). A window into Adriatic Iron Age life—developed through joint work with the University of Zadar. #archaeology #Adriatic

Excavating on Brač Island 🇭🇷 comes with its own cast of characters. One very friendly goat has taken a liking to our team (and our lunches), while a flock of rather judgmental sheep keeps a suspicious distance 🐐❤️🐑👀 Field archaeology & local animals. #archaeology
