🧵2/2 The group had a variety of activities to participate in, including making a fish trap! #ScottishArchaeologyMonth #Mesolithic #Lithics

There was also a range of lithics to explore and learn about, including raw materials in the form of nodules and pebbles. #RawMaterials #Archaeology #Lithics

Guidance is now available in Scotland for clarifying how metal detectorists can positively contribute to our understanding of the past, and what landowners should know before allowing access. This is important, please spread the word. #NEPARC #Responsible #metaldetecting

We've just been sent some pics by Cameron Archaeology, lead volunteer of a small band of fabulous church recording volunteers in Aberdeenshire, from their visit yesterday to Blairdaff Church, near Inverurie The group were shown around the 1850 kirk by session clerk Stella Gauld (🧵)

If you're interested in theology and you're in the centre of Edinburgh right now, you may want to rescue a few historic tomes from the skip outside the Free Church Offices on the Mound. Would be nice to see some of them find a place on a shelf again rather than all go to landfill
