Another great season in #Angola at Ndalambiri rockshelter with the DIG-ARQ team, led by Isis Mesfin, and all of our wonderful fieldschool students. Very excited about the work we're doing and proud of the students. It's a fantastic site with an incredible record of human activity

Very happy that my latest paper on the 3000 year old site of Diallowali is out with @J_AfricanArch!

It's a remarkable site, not just because it holds a unique record itself, but for what it can tell us about the 1st millennium BC West African world 🧵

Really thrilled to have contributed to this amazing paper in @Nature spearheaded by @CesarFortesLima, @cschlebu and others. It compiles an incredible new set of genetic data (modern and ancient) from across W,E,C, and S Africa - with predictably game changing results. Bravo all!
