Great to be invited to the Royal Institute of South Wales to bang the drum for the repatriation of the Ice Age Hunter back to Swansea.

Working title:

‘Are we only worth replicas?’

Heroes Helen Nicholas and Sally Munro are almost within touching distance of the city after their 200 mile run from Oxford to raise awareness of an iconic Ice Age burial that was taken to Oxford University 201 years ago - the ‘Red Lady of #Paviland’. Wow!

Interesting to look at this in regard to the Red Lady of Paviland and the Mold Cape, both originally from Wales, now in Oxford and the British museum, respectively.

Lost in the beauty of Three Cliffs Bay 🌿🌊 This iconic Gower gem never ceases to amaze with its unique blend of rugged cliffs and tranquil waters.

The high route to Paviland cave - not for the faint-hearted. Quite dangerous. Climbers should have an experienced partner with rope experience.

A privilege to talk about the iconic Paviland Cave and the ‘Red Lady’ to @Bishop_Vaughan this week to 350 year 7 and 8s. At the beginning, 5 young people had heard of the Red Lady. So many questions raised and raw enthusiasm from talented, inquisitive young people

The replica Paviland bones at Swansea Museum

There are many original artefacts at Swansea museum from Paviland cave including flints and animal bones but not ‘The Red Lady’, a 33k year old ice age hunter whose remains are in Oxford University.

Bring the bones back!

An article in The Western Mail last year on the campaign to return The Red Lady to Swansea.

The chapter on ‘The Red Lady’ in Ancestors by @theAliceRoberts

Fascinating read

[PavilandFutures @PavilandFutures]

Check out this erudite article by Andrew Green @gwallter on the Red Lady of Paviland and the campaign to bring the relics back to Swansea.

The most comprehensive study of the Red Lady of Paviland (the Red Man) by archaeologist Stephen Aldhouse-Green. A treasure trove of a book.

[PavilandFutures @PavilandFutures]

A magnificent book encompassing everything about the Red Lady by archaeologist Stephen Aldhouse-Green, with a foreword by Rhodri Morgan, the then First Minister.
