I wrote a blog about possibly the most ambitious experimental archaeology project I've seen: Building a replica solar sail spaceship in three weeks and piloting it yourself! Give it a read if it interests you. #StarTrek #Archaeology #Classics @StarTrek goo.gl/zqJymv

Rene Auberjonois 1940~2019. A beloved member of our Star Trek family, among so many other decorated achievements on stage and screen. But above all, one of the sweetest humans I have ever met. May he rest in God’s peace. #ReneAuberjonois #RIP

Hello Twitter, I have an announcement. I will be starting a new postdoctoral position in Switzerland in January! It's a really exciting project creating a database of stamp seals excavated in the Southern Levant. Wish me luck! (Pictured: my favourite duck seals)

When you're researching in Leeds Uni Special Collections and the ONLY other people you accidentally bump into are state school classicists from Allerton Grange with the teacher @MissGWilliams & lecturer @marianuncsum you've campaigned with, studying Roman Coins! @ClassCivAncHist
