Today, I'm at @Museum_Cardiff for the @SocMusArch annual conference, giving a paper with @annarobsonarch on early career perspectives in the heritage, museum and archaeology sectors and suggestions and ideas for real and deliverable change.

And it's over!! This afternoon's sessions (by @amwillemsen1 , @earlymedieval , @Rory_Naismith , and Chris Scull) offered a wonderful range of research to ponder, and various discussions around metal detecting and archaeology were really thought-provoking too!

At the British Museum today for the @findsorguk/@SocMedArch conference! I really enjoyed this morning's papers, especially @papgleeson on multi-period places in Ireland and @Julian62523002 on the artefactual 'signature' of the Viking Great Army! Looking forward to this afternoon!
