Nice new blog post from the @UofGArchaeo Glencoe project team - Achtriachtan and the Power of Walking by Michael Given. The value of getting 'out of the lecture room to walk through the landscape you’re studying'

@PastGlasgow Sad news, bad news, not what we were given to believe

[Past Glasgow @PastGlasgow]

Sad news, heritage heads. Canmore, Scran, and Scotland's Places are all being switched off on 24th June. All content will eventually be consolidated into https://t.co/YNwl1r6mQL, but it's not the nicest thing to use.

@ProfTonyPollard @NTS_archaeology @UofGWarstudies Ooooooohhhh. Sooo looking forward to hearing more of this. Think we will need a longer meeting 🌞

[Tony Pollard @ProfTonyPollard]

Fantastic day at Culloden with @NTS_archaeology & our crack team with finds masterclass & lead shot cataloguing. We got through the 90 pieces we found during work on the battlefield in October. Rounded off with a well attended guided tour. Smashing to be back @UofGWarstudies

Hopefully we will get to learn about these new discoveries first hand next April.💚🌞

[Tony Pollard @ProfTonyPollard]

OTD 1746 Battle of Culloden saw final defeat of Jacobites under Bonnie Prince Charlie after charging Duke of Cumberland’s redcoats. Archaeology has added much to our understanding here and it’s great to be back doing more with @N_T_S & @NTS_archaeology

[The Mary Rose @MaryRoseMuseum]

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...

[Lorn Archaeological and Historical Society @LornArch]

@MaryRoseMuseum Was in Portsmouth when she came up, and emotional day. Congratulations on all you have achieved with her.

@ProfTonyPollard @N_T_S @NTS_archaeology @1745Association Fabulous. Had the idea the other day after Domhnall Uilleam Stiubhart brilliant talk on his great grandfather the Loch Etive Bard, thinking how do I match that!, then remembered his Culloden society connection and all your new work. 💚🌞💚 Will send email. 😊😊
