Come visit our #DiggingTheFestival excavations this Saturday between 10am and 2pm in Festival Park. Bring your Glasgow Garden Festival photos & memories! After the Garden Festival... UofG Archaeology

Others have said it far more eloquently, but ancient monuments are never pristine, static snapshots of a moment in time. They register and reflect the ongoing and ever-changing relationships between the past and the present.

Two thirds of the After the Garden Festival... team will be in Festival Park tomorrow (Sat 22nd) between 10 and 2 to chat all things Glasgow Garden Festival as our #DiggingTheFestival excavations wind down. Come and see us! UofG Archaeology

I would really encourage folk leading digs to pay attention to how the women on site are being treated and spoken to. It’s not always obvious but trust we know when we’re not being respected.

Very excited to share that our Museum of British Colonialism exhibition Anti-Blackness & Colonial Detention is making its way to Glasgow, hosted at The Alchemy Experiment! Make sure to come along to the opening evening on the 25th when we'll be joined by the amazing ScotDetaineeVisitors and Nelson Cummins!

So many archaeologists and their respective orgs love to pretend to be all about making the field better and learning from the past harms that archaeology has inflicted, yet they remain silent at the contemporary violence the field is integral to.

Dear friends, documenting the history of this moment is also an act of collective resistance. As we watch the political class twist narratives in real-time, we must remember that what is at stake here is not just truth but also memory... peoplesarchive.ke

Of all the wonders of Orkney (and there are many) the one that surprises me the most, digging deep to my bones, is the Italian Chapel on Lamb Holm. Built from two end-to-end Nissen huts by Italian POWs captured in North Africa and led by the talented artist Domenico Chiocchetti.

These two new postdoc positions on the “High-rise Landscapes: Afterlives of tower block ‘failure’ and urban change” project look amazing! jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?…
