The University of Sheffield is trying to close the Department of Archaeology. Lets be real, they are out for blood and it does not look good. We need all of the support we can get. If you are an alumni or a current student, or have any other affiliations with this department..1/4

I gave my first zoom paper & first paper of the postdoc on Friday. A reminder that these things are still possible in this pandemic world. I got great questions & suggestions/idea in response - what a wonderful group of PhDs & ECRs @SCRAMSYORK is!

Thanks for coming, Tom! 👍😃

[Dr Tom Morcom @ThomasMorcom]

It was brilliant to hear such an original and interesting approach to Flóamanna saga by @BasilMenethil in his paper on Greenland as a Queer Utopia today @SCRAMSYORK and to take part in such a good discussion afterwards. I can't wait to see how this research progresses!

[SCRAMS @York CMS @SCRAMSYORK]

Thanks Chris - we will now all be questioning the term 'encyclopedic' and checking whether our skull-cups are gold plated 👀

[Chris Rouse @ChrisRouse1212]

Thanks to @SCRAMSYORK for having me and my dodgy internet connection! I had great fun talking about how the Hereford Mappa Mundi did the Scythians dirty, with some really interesting questions afterwards

[SCRAMS @York CMS @SCRAMSYORK]

Chris' PhD at Birmingham examines the representation of East Asia in thirteenth-century cartography and travel literature.

🚨OPEN SCRAMS ALARUM BELL 🚨

Friday 5th Feb at 5pm @ChrisRouse1212 @yorkmedieval alum and PhD cand. @unibirmingham will be teaching us about

<How to Read Medieval Maps like a Pedant> 🗺️👀🔍

alt title: <Stereotyping the Scythians>

Colleagues, friends: DM to join 📝

[SCRAMS @York CMS @SCRAMSYORK]

Chris's paper takes the example of the Scythians on the Hereford Mappa Mundi to explore how the map carefully and deliberately emphasized the barbarity of the Scythians, turning a once detailed and nuanced ethnography into a set of savage, one-dimensional stereotypes.
