Back from a record excavation at La Faucille cave with a fantastic Archeologie UGent and EMA team. We gained new insights into our Neolithic ancestor’s cultural practices and have our work cut out for us in the lab with over 1100 digitally recorded in-situ finds.

Great resolution scans again here at UGCT. So important to make high quality scans before destructive sampling to ensure our biological heritage is preserved for the next generation of scientists.

That's a wrap! The 2024 fieldwork @ Malia by our colleague prof.dr. Maud Devolder in collaboration with the École française d'Athènes: efa.gr/mission-de-ter…

We are looking to build our own zooarchaeological reference collection and looking for disarticulated skeletons of local wild and domesticated animals: boar, large dog/canid, goat, ibex, hare, fox, etc. Anyone able to help?

Alumnus Natan Heidbüchel, winnaar van de Jacques Nenquinprijs 2024 voor de beste archeologische masterproef (verdedigd aan de VUB en UGent in 2021-2022 & 2022-2023), ontving gisteren de prijs en een symbolisch aandenken uit handen van collega Sofie Vanhoutte. Proficiat, Natan!

We did not know what to expect on this public holiday but more than 100 interested people came to see the excavation at Thorikos and were informed about the results in Greek, English, German and French. UGent Archeologie UGent Uni Göttingen Ioannina University

With the backfill we are not only closing the dig but also a scientifically very successful campaign at Thorikos. Great finds in good contexts and moreover a wide range of ecological data UGent Archeologie UGent Uni Göttingen Ioannina University

Great talk by Janet Montgomery from Durham Uni about beer and isotopes in medieval Ireland. Great to see many colleagues here from Archeologie UGent BB-LAB ArcheOs: UGent Lab for Biological Anthropology

Congratulations to IJk van Hattum and Elliot Van Maldegem on successfully defending their PhD dissertations this week. Looking forward to more of their work on Mesolithic and Neolithic Belgium in the coming years during their FWO postdoc.

Massive congrats IJk van Hattum and Elliot Van Maldegem, we look forward to seeing your future work! We also look forward to IJk van Hattum joining us in her joint FWO postdoc later this year 🥳

Today at #EAA2024 our very own Camille Pironneau is presenting some interesting result on our project. Prudence Robert ArcheOs: UGent Lab for Biological Anthropology Archeologie UGent

Such an honor to have Professor Jane Buikstra talk about her work at Phaleron during her visit to Archeologie UGent for the doctoral defense of Anna Lagia. Such an interesting cemetery to study and lovely to get her insights about bioarchaeology. A most inspiring visitor to the lab.

Our latest study in Scientific Reports presents 33 radiocarbon dates from the Remouchamps cave site, Belgium. Findings suggest a significant population reduction during the first half of the Younger Dryas, with repopulation starting around 12,200 cal BP. go.nature.com/3XaAhYl

Bit behind with social media these days, but if you attended #EAA2024 in Rome last week, you could hear some new results on our #multidisciplinair methodologies from Dr. Éva Halbrucker and Hans Vandendriessche too

Yesterday Anna Lagia successfully defended her Archeologie UGent PhD on Inequality in Ancient Greece: a bioarchaeological perspective congratulations Anna!

On the 4th of September, Anna Lagia successfully defended her PhD thesis at Ghent University Archeologie UGent ‘Bioarchaeological perspectives on social inequality from Classical Athens and Laurion.’ Part of it dealt with casestudies from Thorikos
