Did you miss our exhibition in Tromsø? In Berlin too? Good news: we're still on the road! ARV is currently at the Sortland Museum in Vesterålen. Later this year it will travel to Hammerfest, and to Murmansk a few months after. https://t.co/dGqQ6WLp8X

[Unruly Heritage @UnrulyHeritage]

What contemporary archaeology books have you been reading lately? We have been enjoying 'Clashes of Time' edited by Blaising, Driessen, Legendre, and Olivier, on the silent revolution of history, anthropology, and archaeology.

[Unruly Heritage @UnrulyHeritage]

We also love Doug Bailey's newest book on the relationship between contemporary art and prehistoric archaeology, and the "philosophy of holes." The book itself is full of them! Talk about putting your theory in practice (we wonder, how did he talk the publisher into this?!).

[Object Matters @object_matters]

Unruly Heritage is still on very wet, very cold fieldwork up in Finnmark, but that doesn't mean we don't look fabulous doing it. Have you ever heard of Sværholt style?! #fashionblogger #archaeology #leggings

Thank you for writing this, Levi! A must-read for all of our followers.

A new book from archaeologist Mats Burström at @Stockholm_Uni has just been published in Swedish and English. "Ballast: laden with history" from Nordic Academic Press presents fascinating research on how ship ballast has helped to shape our world. https://t.co/5EMGyjG78c
