@ErinLawlor4 That's a relief, thanks so much for getting back to me! I really hope all your work is okay, and everybody is safe.

@ErinLawlor4 Hi Erin, thanks for posting. I don't suppose you know whether it reached The Foundry on Monier Road do you. We live there but are away at the moment and a bit worried. Thanks so much.

Anyone interested in different ways of using technology to interpret Roman archaeology (VR versus Internet of Things) might be interested in this free to access article. I assisted the excellent @DanielaPetrell1 with the writing. https://t.co/rYFolfWSkQ

Would anyone be interested in writing a book chapter on disability and warfare in ancient history video games for a companion I���m editing? Happy to chat about it if you have questions. #archaeogaming

We are shocked and utterly dismayed at the loss of the Sycamore Gap tree. It was a source of inspiration, delight and solace for hundreds of years and we stand with our Hadrian’s Wall partners and neighbours @NlandNP and @nationaltrust

@_RomanBritain @pete_savin @HWpath @NTHadriansWall @Hadrians_Wall @wallcurator As suggested, it's Birdoswald East Gate, but the wall behind has long since gone. however, I notice a picture via google taken by @perlineamvalli I believe, so maybe he could cast some light on what this was. I would love to know what happened to it.

A sundial made from a chalk slab found at Richborough and dating AD43-150.

Unfortunately it wouldn't have worked. If one of my mistakes lasts many centuries and ends up in a museum I'll take that.

Richborough was one of the key locations in the early stages of the Roman invasion of Britain. Now, following a transformation of the on-site museum, what new stories are there to tell? @CurrentArchaeo visited to find out more.

@read_the_past @CurrentArchaeo Thanks for doing such an in-depth and thoughtful job reviewing this.

@CaitlinGreenwo9 Hi Caitlin, hope you are doing well. Someone has written to me interested in a project you did at EH. Would you mind DMing me if you have a chance please?

[Plowden & Smith @PlowdenAndSmith]

A reconstruction of a Roman gateway at #Richborough #RomanFort in Kent is @TheArtNewspaper's podcast work of the week. @andyjroberts, a properties historian with @EnglishHeritage, explains what the gateway tells us about the Romans’ arrival in Britain.
