They were excavated and then re-erected.

Glad you got down there!

Thanks for sharing! I don't know the site but looks quite Neolithic house to me, similar to ones on Orkney.

Oh excellent, saving you time looking them out!

😂 They are living and breathing non-robot colleagues I'm afraid.

Agreed, I just posted something very similar. This among many reasons.

Woop!! 🙌👏 Congrats!

It's beyond complex but essentially filling in someone's teaching who has got some buy-out. Not ideal, we realise.

Agree! Mel talked about this Maiden Castle painting which I really like - completed in the 1940s, and his visit to the excavations there in the 1930s.

Ah, that's a shame. Back to counting fingers then.

Good luck! Just an idea, but you could get the students to ask an image AI to do a historical reconstruction of somewhere, and then compare/contrast with a really good one of the same site by an actual living artist who you know, can be paid for their skill and creativity, and are accurate to boot.

Happy Birthday!! 🎈🎂🎉

Oh, thank you! Sinkholes are great 👍

Oh good, sorry I couldn't stay and come out!

Blond and a dubbel yep

Zot is lovely! Had some at the Half Moon brewery where they make it in Bruges earlier this week.

It seems Paul Nash approached landscapes in similar ways to Neolithic people. He was interested in the power of place, holes, unexpected shapes, disquieting places, and it didn't matter if they were natural or artificial in origin. cc @ladyliminal.bsky.social

I especially enjoyed @prehistorian.bsky.social untangling the intricacies hillfort development through the ideas of Hawkes, Varley, Wheeler, Verney Wheeler and Cunnington, Emily Prtak on the Molly Cotton archive and Mel Giles talking about Paul Nash's artistic approach to landscapes.
