Sgor an Eoin 2022: a quick summary. This excavation of a Mesolithic flint scatter, at >500m altitude in Glen Dee, Aberdeenshire, Scotland is led by me, with collaboration from Martin Moucheron @ucdarchaeology and Rosie Bishop & James Redmond @ArkmuseumUiS 🧵

Our UCD MSc Hunter-Gatherer Archaeology students get to do fieldwork in some pretty special areas. Places still open for Sept 2022 entry. Email graeme.warren@ucd.ie for info.

Long day of surveying as many areas of erosion as we could find for signs of prehistoric archaeology.

In a segment on RTÉ Radio 1 ‘The Buisness’ professional colleagues and friends Sharon Green, Edmond O’Donovan and James Kyle give insights into life and work as an archaeologist: rte.ie/radio/radio1/c… @ucdarchaeology @UCDArchSoc @IAIarchaeo @Archaeology_Irl

Gathering contents for conference packs... The reusable mugs and bottles are an attempt to limit use of one-off containers, organic cotton for bags and t-shirts. Summary conference handbook with links to abstracts on line avoids too much printing. Lovely Mesolithic booklet...
