Happy @WorldDraculaDay A whole year since we took part in the world record for number of #vampires in one place at the same time @WhitbyAbbey .
Seems apt to share our stunning @JefferyWestUK Whitby abbey Belt today of all days. Not to mention those boots....

@YorkshireMuseum An expensive Jet hub cap decoration from a luxury chariot. Roman teens would steal them and wear them proudly on their togas.

Pleased to be a keynote speaker at the 74th Geological Congress of Turkey today. We will be talking all things Oltu taşı, the material known as ‘Turkish jet’.

@tarquinmorgan @PhilippaVereker Good point ..

[Sarah Caldwell Steele @JetSarah]

An eminent field gemmologist recently said that women have no place in the field. I beg to differ. Without scientifically collected sample suites I can’t possibly build the databases needed to determine country of origin.

Yesterday the @ArcDurham students got to try their hand at jet and amber polishing using both modern and Anglo-Scandinavian methods (there’s not much difference really, although today we use slightly less fish)

It’s amazing how often we find archaeological artefacts whilst out beach combing for jet. This tiny Whitby jet flake shows clear evidence (those little pockmarks) of having been worked with a sharp blade.
