YouTube video by Archaeology with Flint Dibble Joe Rogan's Cult of Fake Archaeology

I have stage 4 cancer

Joe Rogan recently mocked my physical appearance to millions, calling me a “weird kind of bitchy weak man”

I’m ripping out the IV and clapping back at this troll in this video: youtu.be/V0tMcWeOuFY?...

Megastructures under Giza Pyramids? ARCHAEOLOGY REWRITTEN or viral BS? YouTube video by Archaeology with Flint Dibble

In an hour (6:30 UK/2:30 EDT), I'll go live and discuss the NEW viral claims for megastructures existing up to 2km deep under the pyramids at Giza

We'll look at interdisciplinary evidence and how this conspiracy spread so quickly

The Plough (Big Dipper) over Stonehenge last night. Mixed results for our lunar research but a very worthwhile trip. Much warmer last night too! #bonus 🏺

Very excited to chat with @flintdibble.bsky.social today about the cuneiform world and wherever that takes us!

Archaeologists have discovered a previously unknown pyramid structure at the Chupacigarro archaeological site, which is part of the Sacred City of Caral-Supe, in the country of Peru.
The pyramid may date back to 3800 years ago!

When Britain used supernatural policemen to hunt down its criminals Curse tablets, from a now vanished temple near Uley, are revealing how Romano-Britons dealt with criminals

There's a new book, by Prof. Roger Tomlin, about the #Roman 'curse tablets' discovered at the major Romano-British shrine complex (seemingly to a hybrid Mercury/local god) at Uley, Gloucestershire!

A sedimentary ancient DNA perspective on human and carnivore persistence through the Late Pleistocene in El Mirón Cave, Spain - Nature Communications Archaeological contexts in caves provide an opportunity to examine human and animal dynamics through climatic events. Here, the authors present sedaDNA of 28 taxa from El Mirón Cave, Spain, including ...

It is out! A story about how sedaDNA can help to reveal undocumented fauna presence and be used together with zooarcheology in the Pleistocene context! The preservation of sedaDNA in El Miron Cave is exceptional 😍🪨🐅 @heasvienna.bsky.social

Folks in this thread pointing out that low pay for high experience jobs makes them 'hobby jobs' - things for rich folks to do. When we make the cultural infrastructure of our country a hobby for the rich, we end up with a culture that valorises wealth. It is a political choice, and a dangerous one

There we are having a posh dinner in the sun and just a tiny bit of booze 😂🏝️ x

Shocking. Our 1-year-old asks about them all the time 😂

Just a reminder to go follow ALL the archaeologists!

The Menhir di Monte Corru Tundu is six metres in height and located near Oristano in Sardinia. It’s around 5,000 years old and is made of trachytic tuff. There are three circular depressions carved into it.

Tumuli from the Etruscan Necropolis of Banditaccia. They are made of earth and stone and cover tombs, some of which are intricately decorated.

The Necropolis of Banditaccia is an incredible Etruscan site! There are over 1,000 tombs, a small section of which is open to the public. Dating from the 9th century BCE, the necropolis was built by the inhabitants of Caisra (modern Cerveteri)

More Wansdyke filth....

Just look at it!

Two biscuits stacked on top of one another, designed to look like a rotating diagram from an early modern astronomical book. The lower biscuit is circular and features a series of horizontal lines and tiny numbers in an early modern font. The top biscuit is roughly in the shape of boat: the 'mast' area reads 'zenith'; the main body of the shape features tiny figures in historical dress holding astronomical instruments and a Latin motto reading 'Nulla dies sine linea'.

Centuries ago, many astronomical books included moving parts to help readers interpret the world around them.

This biscuit recreates a diagram from Sacrobosco’s ‘De Sphaera’ (c.1550). It could be used to calculate the changing length of daylight hours through the year. 🍪

Great to see this volume in the world. Edited vols like this take a lot of time & work so congrats to the editors (wrote my chapter while pregnant- now planning a 6th birthday party 🙃). Spotted a few other @uclarchaeology.bsky.social contributions too…

Old ruin viewed through a glass frame with the original outlines of the building etched onto the glass

An interesting way to help people visualize what a ruin used to be.
