In the #MiddleEast, more than seventy exceptional sites are recognized and protected as #WorldHeritage by @UNESCO. These sites are now under threat, particularly in #Lebanon, #Palestine, #Israel and #Yemen.

UNESCO recalls to all parties their obligation to respect and protect the integrity of these sites. They are the #heritage of all humanity and should never be targeted.

We are shocked by the news of the sudden passing of Dr Phil Mills, @Tileman_and_son. Phil served as a CBM specialist and Finds Lab director in the Carthage Excavations and published his results in an excellent study. We extend our condolences to Ulla and Alex

As fate would have it, on the day we received the news of Maria Eugenia Aubet’s passing, also another great scholar in Phoenician-Punic studies left us. Prof. Enrico Acquaro will be remembered for his immense contribution to the domain from which we all profit for years to come!

We have just received the sad news that Prof. Maria Eugenia Aubet has passed away. She has profoundly shaped our understanding of the westward expansion of the Phoenicians. She will be missed but in her many publications she will continue to inspire us!
