⁦@sheffielduni⁩ is the the latest UK archaeological department under threat - archaeology is a great multidisciplinary subject. Its part arts, part science and a gateway to many careers.

I hope this isn’t the first of many- how shortsighted 🙁😖 https://t.co/aNP7vKWkLS

@hlsteyne @UoMCAHAE This is awful! The slow destruction of archaeology departments cannot be allowed to continue!

[Dr Hanna #ceasefireNOW @hlsteyne]

The Uni of Sheffield #archaeology department has been a powerhouse for decades producing brilliant students and research. Awful to see YET ANOTHER department at risk. Solidarity from @ArchSocUoM @UoMCAHAE who have been through this. Please see details of how to support Sheffield.

We need your help. The CBA & colleagues have written to @BorisJohnson @RobertJenrick @RishiSunak
to ask that archaeology is protected in possible radical reforms to the planning process. You can help by writing to your MP. Find out how & why it matters. https://t.co/kUdBqjBd9y

1) A thread of Roman treasure, wartime intrigue, secrets, lies and obsession.

21st June 1946 – Mr Sydney Ford walks into his local Suffolk police station a troubled man. He has a confession to make. The Sergeant sits Ford down with a pot of tea and asks him to tell his story...

@Bullpup2 That's really a whole separate issue. Obviously we want funding to increase and there to be plenty of jobs because we're students but that doesn't mean we can't also advocate for greater diversity in archaeology too

[UoM Archaeology @ArchSocUoM]

Here's an article from Raksha Dave about the need to diversify archaeology from 2016 - it's still very relevant today, if you can spare a few minutes give it a read
