A lesson to Classicists about how to more interestingly and entertainingly dissect Hollywood movies about the ancient world.

After rewatching Home Alone, I couldn’t stop wondering:

how plausible is the oversleep that leaves Kevin behind?
So I wrote a tiny paper and ran the numbers.

Merry Christmas! 🎄

Hey @bookingcom , I booked four of us on this flight (XZ2340), which - and so clearly - you had as leaving at 6:30pm.

Imagine our surprise to discover it left instead at 16:30…

Any explanation for the blunder?

[Stuart James @sttujames]

Great couple of days at the Tharros Archaeological site 🇮🇹 with @StevenEllis74 & @Pompeiana79 from the Tharros Project. Fascinating to see their excavation & digital methods in action—plenty of inspiring chats & exciting future possibilities. Thanks to all who talked with me! 👏

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,

"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"

Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

Dozens of giant sculptures surfaced in a field in 1974. What do they say about the ancient Mediterranean?

Pompeii has been excavated for hundreds of years, and in that time techniques, practices and philosophies have changed. In the new Emperors of Rome podcast we speak to Sophie Hay (@pompei79) and @StevenEllis74 https://t.co/q2eFeGYwgX

Deeply saddened by the news of Arthur Pomeroy’s death. He was the cornerstone of the Victoria University Classics Department for many years, an excellent teacher, and a warm, avuncular figure. He will be sorely missed.

Now that I’m a tenured professor everyone labels me as a foe.

The Right says I’m a socialist state bureaucrat, warping young minds.

And the Left says I’m a hyper-privileged oppressor wielding institutional power over helpless grad students.

In reality, I am a humble scholar.

Oggi siamo al @MuseodiCabras per presentare alcuni dei risultati dei nostri scavi a Tharros.

@profyarrow My god, yes, this. The “for you” tab is horrendous; have to remember to re-click the “following” tab.
