"We tend to be really happy when we have our hand in a bucket full of cess...old cess." - Dr Steve Davis, UCD #IAI2019 #archaeology – at Cork, Ireland
From the #IAI2019 keynote speaker, Dr Sophie Hueglin, "Where should the starship go?" – at Galway, Ireland
John Tierney - “Our main tool is a roll of masking tape” and “I actually have a headstone with me.” – at Cork, Ireland
To paraphrase Dr Meriel McClatchie, UCD, on the lack of female representation in archaeology in third-level Irish institutions, "You could get very frustrated...you could get very annoyed or you could just get busy trying to sort this out." #IAI2019 – at Cork, Ireland
