What better way to start your day is there, than a talk at the Museum of Archaeology Stavanger, Norway about the importance of replacing your seed.

Have a great day and 45th AEA Conference all 🤠

On the ferry back to England after a successful first field trip for our APEX ‘Bog Biographies’ project. Several coring transects across Borremose completed and three nice sequences sampled for pollen, insect and radiocarbon analyses. Looking forward to getting stuck into the lab work now!

UK's first rice crop ripe for picking after hot summer Paddy fields are thriving in a quiet part of east England and might help feed us in the future.

Rice now can be grown in the UK:

Coventry University project aims to reveal secrets of the ‘bog bodies’ Iron Age ‘bog bodies’ have long captivated the imagination, but a Coventry University-led study is aiming to shed new light on why these individuals were deposited in the bogs.

Excited to share news of our new project in which we’ll be using palaeoenvironmental archives to learn more about Iron Age ‘bog bodies’. Huge thanks to @royalsociety.org, @britishacademy.bsky.social, @raeng.org.uk & @leverhulme.ac.uk for supporting this work with an APEX Award!

Nice article about Estonia’s bogs, which are very much on my list of places I need to visit!

Finally made the move over here after giving up with Twitter (X) quite some time ago. This is much nicer! Looking forward to sharing updates on some exciting new projects soon. For now, here’s a picture of some beautiful sundews in a bog on Arran.
