Sampling timber for tree-ring dating
Dendrochronology sample
Ship’s floor reused as lintel
Ship’s floor (oak) reused as lintel. Removed during construction work from Cambrian Place Swansea. Dendro dated to spring summer 1778 and sourced from a locally grown Welsh 🏴 tree! #dendrochronology #wales #archaeology
Very nice! I know @jpwarchaeology.bsky.social also likes a bit definitively identified reused ship's timber in building!
ah I missed this, looks.good!
Yes but mmm only ?2 days ago, and it shot straight to the top of my reading list!
Wishing my colleagues from ButCH Sef Penrose, @laraband.bsky.social & @angelapiccini.bsky.social a fabulous Gullfest more than human art and heritage FTW www.plymouthherald.co.uk/whats-on/wha...
For #LondonRiversWeek I'm sharing a photo of the Channelsea, much culverted but where it emerges is a lovely marshy spot, cared for by #SurgeCollective #BlancSceol and the site, recently, for #LeakyInstruments workshops on how we can live ethically with rivers #RiverCommons
Scale model of The Admiralty Dockyard and the ships it built.
Thames through Time is back in Birkbeck for the 2nd week, and the MA Archaeology & Heritage student Christopher Snary @bbkhistorical.bsky.social has brought in a new model! This one is a scaled model of The Admiralty Dockyard. Archaeology and model-making, it’s important!!
That's so cool! What a fab piece of work
Looks fab!
This is well worth a go! Have you seen it @lornarichardson.bsky.social ?
The Greens now have nearly 200 more councillors than Reform.
This is not something you'd be likely to guess from all the copiously salivating media coverage of Farage & his crew of billionaire-backed far-right chancers.
Great to have been part of it! Loved how on the hoof conversations with the students around the GII Listed Royal Dockyard wall created and filled and created gaps in its history, love how you always end up with more questions than you started with Standing Buildings Recording!
Their loss - and another good reason to buy nice biscuits! Thats a good idea- except it scuppers my plan to turn up without having booked!
Def not you! I had a 100% no show once, unusual, though up to ~60% wasn't - that was pre-COVID. I think everyone who drops out thinks they're the only one. Plus side, it's made me realise if a free or v. cheap ticketed event is sold out it's worth turning up to get on!
Super 2 days teaching building recording & talking sound w/ @bbkhistorical.bsky.social #ThamesThroughTime BA & MA fieldschool students. We all discovered much more about this GII wall than the List description! Thx so much @lesleymcf.bsky.social @drclaireharris.bsky.social for the invite!
Thames through Time @bbkhistorical.bsky.social and an archaeology of sound with @laraband.bsky.social and @drclaireharris.bsky.social!
You're welcome, I loved your thread and am skipping over to order your book Sonic Pasts rn as I've just seen that @routledgehistory.bsky.social @tandfresearch.bsky.social have 20% off over April!

On the #CitiesAndMemory map you can find my field recording of castells building (ICH) recorded in Tarragona on Catalunya's national day 2022 and my remix of Madeira's Levada do Rey, reflecting their part in Madeira's sugar industry and its blue print for plantation enslavement.

A photo of a group of women in a fallen log in a forest in early spring. The log is creating a bridge. Three women are standing, one is sitting with one foot up on the log. The ground is covered with brown leaves and mossy branches.

We love finding bridges
Like Section 28 in the UK, the 'promotion' of DEI is defined as any representation of diversity, showing anything other than cis, white, straight, able bodied men. And lazy implementation takes 'don't say gay' to ridiculous new heights
