Human bioarchaeologist, specialist in perimortem trauma, leprosy, Romano-British cemeteries, and the burial archaeology of medieval Ethiopia. Always open to new freelance projects and job opportunities. She/her
Looking for a job after my research scholarship ends (this month). I’m a bioarchaeologist with 20+ years experience in fieldwork and lab analysis, plus experience with CAD and Photoshop to produce plans, maps etc. I’m looking for something in Germany, my German is at B1/B2. Any leads would be great!

Found out a few days ago that the Gerda Henkel have extended my scholarship by 6 months. Big relief and a chance to better finish off my research in Addis (though it’ll never be completely finished, what project is?). Still looking for my next job though, any opportunities very welcome!

Final research report for my Gerda-Henkel-Stiftung scholarship finished today, 18 reports written over the last two years. On to new things in January (if I can find a job!)

My Gerda-Henkel scholarship is almost over and I’m now looking for new projects. I’ve been an osteoarchaeologist for 20 years, and have extensive experience working on site and with museum collections in various countries. I’m based in Berlin but can travel. If anyone has any openings, let me know!

Recording (empty) graves in a cave behind a church, a service started and trapped me for 3 hours. Two of which I couldn’t do anything because all the equipment I needed was outside and nobody could come in either!

Welcome to Addis! This is the view out of my bedroom window…at 22:41. Night night!

Safely arrived in Addis and welcomed with flowers from my colleagues in the National Museum

Leaving for Addis in a little under an hour. Sixth visit since Jan 2023 and almost certainly the last funded by my Gerda-Henkel-Stiftung scholarship. Looking forward to doing a bit of excavation this time, makes a change from being in the museum and excited to see what we will find!

Hello all! I never posted much over at the other place but maybe I should try and do more here. I’ll see if I can post some stuff during my upcoming fieldwork in Ethiopia with the SolZag Project (Solzagproject.org). I’ll never ever be close to being @flintdibble.bsky.social but I’ll try my best!
