Never been embarrassed to be a @sheffielduni student/grad before today.@UniShefArch & @Hugh_Willmott inspired me to go to uni, enabled me to work for @WA_north, dig all over Eng/EU, encouraged me to do a #phd & now push on to the CS fast stream. So sad.

Today we were informed that the University Executive Board is proposing to close the Department of Archaeology. As a department we unanimously reject this decision, and the grounds upon which it was made. It will mean the end of Archaeology at Sheffield.

Congratulations to Emma Hook who has completed her PhD, with the following title: 'An osteoarchaeological reconstruction of the medieval population from the Hospital of St James at Thornton Abbey, Lincolnshire' 🙌👏👏🥳

I’m currently a sitting member of Senate and would welcome comments / concerns by @UniShefArch colleagues and others that can be shared at the highest level.

Great to see a member of the White Rose Consort. exec board championing investment in the arts and humanities, sad not to have seen any such support from @WRoCAH with regards to the wider implications for arts and humanities research posed by the potential closure of @UniShefArch

[Sam Bromage @sam_bromage]

Great to see @UoYArchaeology highlighting the broader value of archaeology as a subject. Its certainly served me well as an #ArchaeologistMadeInSheffield (BSc, MA, and PhD) about to start an exciting new chapter on the Civil Service Fast Stream (DDaT) #savesheffieldarchaeology

[Archaeology UoYork @UoYArchaeology]

John Schofield on the benefits of an archaeological education. From @CurrentArchaeo a few years ago, but true now more than ever.

[Faculty of Arts and Humanities @UniShefAH]

Listen to our very own student, Christos from @UniShefArch, share his experience of studying a PhD in Classical Archaeology 🔍👇

“Proposals to close world-renowned university department would be a "devastating blow" to the country.”

[Soc Post-Med Archaeology @SPMA]

In light of concerns regarding the spread of #COVID19 and uncertainty surrounding travel and large gatherings in the UK in the immediate future, we have with regret decided to cancel our Post-Medieval Archaeology Congress at the University of Plymouth next month.

Glastonury Tor was also the setting for the execution of the last Abbot of Glastonbury on 15/11/1539. 1/2

[Sam Bromage @sam_bromage]

This was the culmination of the dramatic series of events surrounding the suppression of one of the wealthiest and last remaining monastic houses in England. #Dissolution #16thCentury #ThomasCromwell #Henryviii 3/3

[Sam Bromage @sam_bromage]

After being condemned to death on a fabricated treason charge he was dragged on a hurdle through the town of Glastonbury to the Tor where he was to be hung, drawn & quartered along with two of his monks. 2/3.
