Thank you once again to the EAA Belfast for not only organizing a great conference but also allowing me a chance to speak about my research and organize an entire session on numismatics. #eaa#eaa2023#coins#Archaeology#numismatics
@natbrusgaard I think a CW can't hurt, especially if it's something like the bog bodies or the Tarim mummies. There just needs to be an understanding that this is a part of the course.
Amazing 19th Qur'an manuscript with Chinese translation. Seized by the British army in the city of Xiamen during the First Opium War. The British General William M. Gabbett wrote on the first page: "The most valuable Book yet found in China"

@melucene My question would be, what is the end goal of showing the violence? If it's to prove a point, then I think it's fine. The reality is history is violent, we aren't showing it for the sack of it, we are showing it to make a point and educate. Maybe just add a trigger warning.
A HUGE thank you to all involved in the organisation of #EAA2023, our volunteers, members and delegates. It was a great and our largest ever annual meeting! We are already getting ready to the next one. See you in ROME for #EAA2024 at Sapienza Università di Roma!

Update to the family tree.
Added:
-Chinggis' daughters

-a few more individuals here and there that I had images of.
I'm surprised how many variations of the name Konchak ended up; it's a surprisingly unisex name?
