Analysis will show this to be the βhelp yourselfβ bin of coffee grounds, backing my theory that the #Durotriges chieftain opened the first #Waitrose in order to take advantage of legionaries missing espresso, linguine and pesto!

#WyrdWednesday #HillfortsWednesday: `In #IronAge Britain a settlement on #HengistburyHead was established and the headland was cut off from the mainland by the construction of two banks and ditches called the Double Dykes, similar to those found at Maiden [β¦]

Photo taken on one of the embankments shows the ditches with overcast skies.
This #hillfortswednesday I want to show the magnificent hill fort known as Badbury Rings! This needs more excavations done but it is a fascinating example of Iron Age Dorset and the #durotriges
You can tell Iβm an archaeologist I keep digging holes for myself. Read politeness as politics now am researching politeness (I am out of my depths). I need to disappear to the #durotriges project π
Dorset day is every day and yes Stonehenge is overrated. To be fair think #durotriges is still better βοΈπ
Today marks officially the last day I take archaeology. Of course Iβm still going to be doing archaeology related things but it is bitter sweet. Archaeology will always be a part of me especially #durotriges #ironage and of course paganism and burial rites.
I highly recommend the new research published from Bournemouth university in regards to #maidencastle and #durotriges

Here's Weatherby Castle #Dorset which lies only 8km from the #Durotriges25 dig
Today, the small bivallate sub-rectangular 7ha Iron Age hillfort, despite being largely covered by trees, remains utterly magnificent

Happy long weekend from the land of the #Durotriges - Springβs a Springing!
So you archaeologists, fetishizing Greece and Rome, so-called civilisations which weighed in heavily on warfare, hierarchy and slavery, tell us why the most imperial savagery on earth -- the British Empire -- made so much of a classical education? We prefer the matrilocal #Durotriges.
I went to Maiden Castle recently, and it sounds like a small thing but I really enjoyed the little barbed wire fences around the ramparts. It gave just the vaguest hint of this being a defended and manmade structure, rather than a natural landscape

On this Friday Walk I finally make it to Maiden Castle, Britainβs biggest Iron Age hillfort.
