I am so excited to participate in the #SLU#SilkRoad lecture series, a hybrid event on 2 December! I will be exploring what the Silk Road looks like from the perspective of medieval #Armenian art history and archaeology-- join us!
Thrilled to see this online! My essay 'Thinking with #Mud: Dirt, Imagination & Early Medieval English Culture' in the latest volume in Brill's series The Elements in the #Medieval World: EARTH. #EnvHums#EnvHist#ecocriticism https://t.co/nrESq1WBG3
OUT TODAY! Amazing work by colleagues at OSU on the archaeobotany of a #SilkRoad caravanserai in
#Armenia
-- on what travelers ate, who fed them, and how food shaped the world of the #medieval silk road 🍇🍑🌾
