Many thanks @QamNas for inviting me to be part of this awesome #WomenInAustralianPalaeontology special issue of @fupalaeosoc 'Beer n Bones'. So impressed with the amazing up & coming talent we have in Australia. Proud to represent @LTUArchaeology and #zooarchaeology. #IWD2021

It was great returning to the @latrobe campus last week to teach our 5-day intensive @LTUArchaeology zooarchaeology (ARC5BON) course. Students focused on bone identification, visited the Victorian Native Animal Body Farm to study bone weathering & undertook butchery experiments.

[Dr Jillian Garvey @jillian_garvey]

So after almost a year away from teaching students on campus, the new @LTUArchaeology teaching lab is all set up to teach our #ARC5BON Human and Animal Bones summer intensive subject next week. I hope the students are as excited as I am! @latrobe #zooarchaeology

@_awaishere Except this time we get to record it all via social media.

[Dr Jillian Garvey @jillian_garvey]

We’re getting some great results from our #devil, #dingo and #powerfulowl scat and pellet analyses as part of our @LTUArchaeology summer intensive subject. There were certainly some interesting things on the menu! @latrobe

[Oz Zooarchaeology @oz_zooarch]

What to learn about #zooarchaeology or vertebrate bone morphology? Enrollments for our summer intensive @latrobe @LTUArchaeology subject are now open. Designed for both humanities and science undergrad and masters students this subject focuses on Australian native animals.

@marcialangton I climbed Uluru on my Yr 10 school trip in 1991. We were none the wiser. I am sorry too.

[Dr Jillian Garvey @jillian_garvey]

This is such a great idea and something I’d love to see happen in Australian archaeology!
