Being a Christian and an archaeologist: it’s not all that contradictory. It’s a bit of a stereotype to think so. But to me, they go hand in hand! And both influence my research interests and decisions. Always happy to talk about it! #archaeology #Christianity #phdlife

Sam Turner will discuss OSL-dating and @mickeyvanlit will present a case study of Birse parish, Aberdeenshire. And it counts as CPD! Sign up here: archaeologists.net/civicrm/e…
For those who are on #Bluesky I’m on there too! Find me under @meikevanlit if you’re interested. Much like X, it’ll just be my research and such!

Great to have contributed to an article in the Conversation with @lizzierbertson and #ProfMichaelGiven @UofGArchaeo on our work in #Glencoe2024 this summer. You can check out the article here: theconversation.com/glen-coe… @NTS_archaeology
Well, that’s me on my way to @AEA_Oxford24 ! 🚄 I’ll be speaking on day 1 (tomorrow) in the afternoon, so hopefully see you there 😁

Day 1 of SGSAH's 10 on 10: Researchers on Research 📚
Today's video comes from @GalaGeorgette who shows us what her research looks like on a day-today basis, from a cosy home desk to the torrential rain of Glencoe 🌧️
Come back tomorrow for our next researcher spotlight 🎄

caring for immigrants is one of the only things the bible is actually clear about so i never want to hear conservative christians claim their beliefs are biblical ever again

Discovered a new referencing management system. It's called, doing it all manually because you're a luddite
Out on a day fieldwork today! Visited the Colony at Bennachie and now on my way to my own research area to better understand past and current land use!
We did get stuck in a blizzard but now we’re in sunny Finzean ☀️☃️
I’ve been neglecting to update you on my lab exploits recently. But rest assured, it’s all getting ready for @AEA_Oxford24 ! Who can guess what I’m doing today?

Exciting Research! 🔬🌿
@mickeyvanlit - PhD Researcher in Archaeology at the @UofGlasgow received a SAGES Small Grant to study how human activities have impacted soil health over time.
How dare I forget to show my peat. This was pre-cleaning and pre-photo. I promise the real pictures are so much better 😁

🚨Glossary alert! Soil properties play a crucial role in determining soil health by influencing water availability, nutrient supply, microbial activity, and structure. 🌱 Do you know what soil properties are? 🤔
