Bury St Edmunds Iron Age coin hoard sells for more than £33,000 Finder Prof Tom Licence plans to use some of his share to fund archaeological work in eastern England.

"It was an honour to see expert collectors taking these coins into their care,"

Really?? REALLY? and there was me thinking you just enjoyed making a fast buck, with at least two of the most important coins now off to the USA...

As perhaps a 'New Antiquarian' [ditch the awful name, please?] I'm not sure what to make of this.

In #Archaeology, this isn't a recent thing (& it's more complicated), but I do think academia still isn't sure what to do with learned - but non-academia derived - non-standard research outputs.

Newport Roman Villa may close to the public under budget plans Among a list of 47 saving plans totalling over £4m for 2026/27, County Hall’s proposed budget includes a provision to close Newport Roman Villa…

Newport #Roman Villa is under threat of closure to the public (link below) so you better be quick @durotrigesdig.bsky.social if you like the look of that hypocaust! #hyposcaustgate @cbawessex.bsky.social #IsleOfWight

Totally agree with all of this.

Being inside was strange exlerience, looking at it now still makes me feel a bit odd, I honestly don't know how you all did it for so long.

Women in archaeology are frequently undercited. To work towards a more equitable field, @saa-aap.bsky.social brings together many of the papers written by women, femme, and nonbinary authors over the years, free to read (where not already #openaccess) through 31 March:

No County Archaeologist for Hamphire?? Hampshire heritage has taken a huge hit, museums personel have gone too. #CIfA Chartered Institute for Archaeologists & @bajr-badger.bsky.social 🏺

The front cover of the book has a cream backgroumd colour with the words All My Worldly Joy written in black, underneath which is an image of a woman in black and lined in gold with gold stars in her body and her hands cradling a line drawing of a baby in utero. The womans head is like a round pink planet with gold planetary rings. Plants and flowers also in line drawn gold are growing behind and around her.

Very excited for @laurarichmond.bsky.social today & the launch of 'All My Worldly Joy', it is such a beautifully written personal exploration of maternal mental health & the system women (in Britain) encounter - honestly can't recommend it enough 🩷

And who is overseeing the taskforce...

Also the taskforce? Who are the taskforce?

Thanks @zenakamash.bsky.social for this. The EAA membership have made their views very clear. What an avoidable mess & stress for so many in finally reaching this point. Lets hope that the promised taskforce do engage fully with the membership going forward.
