Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: Boobs and bad advice
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015/06/boobs-and-bad-advice.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 2 June 2015. Boobs and bad advice. If you have Twitter, you'll have spotted the latest firestorm over some questionable career advice. A post-doc's advisor can't keep his eyes from her boobs. She should put up and shut up, apparently. Cue rage. And not one of them looked at my tits. I am one lucky pup. Thank you all. Tuesday, June 02, 2015. In my first bo...

Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: Silvia
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015/04/silvia.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 14 April 2015. A slightly better excuse than last time I had a big break from this blog. Silvia Marianne made her entrance just after midnight on the 18th March, and since then I've been pretty much glued to her- when she's not feeding I want to cuddle her and gaze at her perfect little face. She's unimpressed by archaeology though. Tuesday, April 14, 2015.

Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 5 February 2013. Stone: Joking Aside: Kings, Car Parks, and the Future. Or you can buy the book on the skeletal remains from Oxbow, "Blood Red Roses: The Archaeology of a Mass Grave from the Battle of Towton AD 1461" here. What do you think about the Rich III saga? Do you agree about the future of archaeology? As an aside, this makes the Poggio Civitate d...

Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: (BAD) News from Syria
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015/08/bad-news-from-syria.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Wednesday, 19 August 2015. BAD) News from Syria. I haven't been there. Too wussy by far. I posted over a year ago about the problems of mourning archaeology at the expense of people. Very sadly, today, that issue has resurfaced in the most tragic way. What courage. What honour. What bravery. When will it be enough to act? Wednesday, August 19, 2015. A gorgeous ves...

Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: Some day my "prince" will come
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015/03/some-day-my-prince-will-come.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 10 March 2015. Some day my "prince" will come. If I say a prince to you, what do you think of? Male of royal blood, right? Prince Charming, Prince Edward, Prince Harry. The Oxford dictionary defines a prince by his relationships to other royals- the son or grandson of a monarch. Yes, it's a very impressive set of goodies to be buried with. Somebody wa...

http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Wednesday, 26 August 2015. Shakespeare, Street Harassment and the Etruscans. I'm chugging on through- nearly done with Chapter 7. This is my favourite part of the book so far, because it deals with some pet interests of mine- the lives of Etruscan women and the state of modern feminism. In Shakespeare's Rape of Lucrece, dedicated to Henry Wriothesley, 3rd Earl of ...

Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: July 2015
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 14 July 2015. Writing for normal people. But currently I'm writing for the real world. For those who aren't totally obsessed with the dead, and who wouldn't dream of applying some bizarre social theory to a set of graves and coming up with an out-there-but-it-kinda-works interpretation. 2) Don't get preachy. Nobody likes to read moralising tomes of se...

Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: Bone: NOT mysterious Etruscans (vol.1)
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2013/02/bone-not-mysterious-etruscans-vol1.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 26 February 2013. Bone: NOT mysterious Etruscans (vol.1). In my first bone post. The title for this post is inspired by perhaps the biggest Etruscan website on the internet- mysteriousetruscans.com. Now, I have no problem at all with popular Etruscology. The website is actually pretty good! Clue's in the name. Mysterious Etruscans. It's a hook, a ...It in...

Pots & Places, Stones & Bones: Do me a favour- tell me a story
http://potsplacesstonesbones.blogspot.com/2015/08/do-me-favour-tell-me-story.html
Pots and Places, Stones and Bones. Beautiful things from past and present, the objects and thoughts that make up the life of an archaeologist. Tuesday, 4 August 2015. Do me a favour- tell me a story. Archaeologist or human being? Why do you read this blog? Are you a friend who feels sorry for me? Are you genuinely interested in some of this weird rubbish? How did you find me? Googling Etruscans in a moment of internet madness? Anyway, whoever you are (and please do say hi! Tuesday, August 04, 2015. Bone:...
