Completely heartbreaking to wait for news of my friends and colleagues trapped in Kyiv and Chernihiv. Chilling to think our dig in Vypovzyv was right next to a military training camp & what they trained for is now a reality. Hoping & praying they all remain safe 🕊🇺🇦🌻

All my thoughts are with Ukrainian colleagues this morning. The time I spent there in 2019 was incredible, and we could not have asked for more welcoming hosts. Just hoping everyone can stay safe.

Ayokunmi O. Ojebode and Idowu Odebode will be presenting on ‘Titbits on onomastics among the Yoruba Africans’, looking particularly at cultural context of names and their significance to social realities for this ethnic group. #snsbi #namesuk #nigeriannames

Don't forget that we have made pretty much the entire Nomina archive (less the last issue) open access ^_^

I only have to glance at a parcel address like "Muddlefop Manor" or "Goosefap Lane" to know it is going somewhere in England

People who say - authorities should take statues down after discussion. Yes. But it isn't happening. Bristol'sbeen debating #EdwardColston for years and wasn't getting anywhere. In 2018, it was agreed that statue would bear a plaque noting his involvement in the slave trade. BUT

It was the last night at the Lendbreen ice patch. A gale was blowing and we were huddling together in a tent, sorting finds and drinking coffee. Little did we know that we were about to make a very special discovery (with the camera rolling)...
It seemed like a Jessie book 😁
Day 7/7 of my life in pictures. I'm looking forward to getting stuck into The Butchering Art by @DrLindseyFitz -- thank you for the gift, @JessicaTreacher! Birthdays while under lockdown can't be all bad when there's lots of good books to read.
I was nominated by @ColetteMDavies
Online access to Nomina is so incredibly useful right now. Thanks @SNSBI_official

Thanks to Lesley Abrams for her fantastic talk this evening on religious life in viking armies for the @UoNCSVA
Being able to bring together multidisciplinary scholarship and present it in a cohesive form is a talent in itself. Here's to being an interdisciplinarian!

To be read 👇 and then, more importantly, to be acted on. I suggest that this is a New Year’s Resolution that all those who believe in such things might profitably try to adopt for the greater good.

The fletching of a c. 1500-year-old arrow ❤️ Melted out at 2000 meters in the Jotunheimen Mountains.
This will give us the possibility of identifying the bird species, using ancient DNA 🙂
