I have a nicer setup today to work on stats 🍁 Feeling so much better about the analyses, what I’m doing and most importantly why I’m doing it!

I also think it's safe to say that our lab technician knows me very well... 🐢 Appreciate the support (and the humour)! I'm definitely that kid!

Back to work! The uni keeps trying to get rid of us, this time with sudden building moves, but the Zooarch Lab endures 🐢 Last week we (hopefully!) wrapped up turtle bone measuring for my PhD's interobserver error test. These pics are from an earlier session, thanks all! @zooarchlabsheff.bsky.social

No pretty pictures from my work there, but a few weeks ago I was in Stymphalia working at the Museum of the Environment... Measuring ancient turtle bones and randomly finding bear astragali!

Back from my archaeological data gathering trip to Spain! I’ve had so much fun and I’ve measured so many turtles! It’s been amazing getting to visit the different institutions and getting to meet so many researchers! 🐢

The last context of the day is proving to be a challenge… Mostly because my brain is mushy peas and already on weekend mode
