Did you know hedgehogs are one of the fastest declining mammals in the UK?

First day on site for our students. Mike gives them a tour to show them the site and then it's time to get digging. We'll be hoping for better weather over the next few days

Every time I see Indiana Jones, I think: why is there not more Marion Ravenwood? Why is she not in every film? Why, indeed, did we not get a series of Further Adventures of Marion Ravenwood?

@ArchaeologyGrrl @amalexathorn @amyclaires @jtlloyd3 @synthy @Hollyjm84 @UreSophie @petrifiedmuse 2, definitely. High level of entertaining sneakiness from Odysseus and Hermes; Odysseus and Jason would swap great travel anecdotes, not necessarily truthfully; and, well, Jason is Thessalian...

MOOCs are high on our list of brilliant things to do while in lockdown. You can find loads of them by searching @unifrog but the Classics Department would heartily recommend this one on Virtual Rome, including exploring the amazing 3D model of ancient Rome! #StayHomeSaveLives

Here is Lego Hygeia, ancient Greek goddess of health, cleanliness and hygiene. I have created her to look after us all during these difficult times of the #COVIDー19 virus.

May she bless us all with health, strength and resilience and keep us in good spirits!
