Pleased to say I passed my viva on Wednesday (almost) wrapping up 4 years of fun at University of Glasgow UofG Archaeology! Thanks to Dr Eugene Costello and Gareth Beale for examining my thesis - and Dr Michael Given, Sian Jones and Rachel Opitz for supervising.

On the "Immigrants eat cats" thing. This is part of a long, particular history of using animals to other and vilify immigrants in the United States. Here's an 1871 cartoon describing anti-Chinese sentiment: "Coolie, Slave, Pauper, and Rat-Eater."

Finally wandered up former #Nethercroy Colliery #bing (always been too distracted by the surface remains of the mine and #coke works). Amazing what at little bit of profiling, time and food waste compost from across North #Lanarkshire households can do. #Coal #MiningLandscapes

Earning a PhD at StirlingHistHeritPol can help make you a published author - congratulations, Dr Dr Calum Cunningham !
