NEW OPEN ACCESS E-BOOK: 'Roman Camps in Scotland' by @drbecjones.bsky.social Our 20th open access e-book will be of interest to those who wish to know more about the archaeology of the Roman army, its campaigns in northern Britain and the ancient military mind: www.socantscot.org/news/new-ope...

Talk 2 ends with a plea for information! Those of you in local societies - look through your archives & find women who have contributed to your area's heritage. Since publishing in CA 427 Tatiana and Rebecca have already received info about female archaeologists - but we need to find more! #CALive26

Delighted to attend #CALive26 yesterday and speak with Tatiana on our project researching women pioneers of Roman archaeology in the 19th & 20th centuries

Our 2nd talk is by Dr Tatiana Ivleva (@newcastleuni.bsky.social) and @ @drbecjones.bsky.social (@ntlmuseumsscot.bsky.social), who will tell us about some of the ‘Mothers’ of Romano-British studies, with ‘Women in Romano-British archaeology: not so ‘rude’ and not so ‘terrible’!’ #CALive26

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... I worked there in the 90s. They have done a lovely job and urge anyone interested in the Kingdom of the Isles to get a hold of the book published by the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. The Archaeology of Finlaggan, Islay is available from the online shop

'Forgotten' royal castle uncovered at Finlaggan on Islay

Archaeologists say the fortress was owned by ancestors of Scotland's medieval Lord of the Isles.

Lucky enough to be at the opening of this exhibition at Queen's Gallery, Holyrood Palace. Fascinating overview of photographic techniques over the last century. Would have benefitted from more photographs in Scotland and some imagery or artefacts of the cameras they used at the time
