What a day! I had an amazing time last night speaking at @chalkefestival.bsky.social on my latest book The Crown of Thorns. It was wonderful to meet so many inquisitive people yesterday during the Q&A. Thank you Chalke for this opportunity! @tandtclark.bsky.social @historywithjackson.bsky.social

Clearly ecstatic about a) Medieval villages and b) @chalkefestival.bsky.social ! I’ll be giving a talk on Tuesday 24 June at 20:30 on The Crown of Thorns - a curiously elusive image in early Christian art and not at all what you expect…I can’t wait to see you there! @tandtclark.bsky.social

Had such fun this evening chatting on @historyrage.bsky.social! If it wasn’t a crown made of thorns…what was it?…tune in and find out!

Thrilled to be a part of #ChalkeIntroduces at @chalkefestival.bsky.social! I will be giving a talk on the evening of the 24th on my new book ‘The Crown of Thorns’.
