The next article we're highlighting is Eleanor Standley's: ‘Ffylle the Cuppe and Make Vs Mery’: Lobed-Drinking Vessels and Their Use in Later Medieval England. It explores the drinking material culture of the medieval middling elites. (Image: York Museum Trust CC BY SA 4.0).

#FindsFriday! We’ve got a lovely Roman flagon with a great view of how the handle was attached. You can see that a slit was cut into the body of the vessel and the bottom of the handle pushed through. After, it was smoothed over on the outer surface, but left unfinished inside.

Our call for papers is out now! We invite PGRs and ECRs to present their work in a weekly seminar series in July and August, focussing on multidisciplinary approaches to the past, people and places. Submit here: shorturl.at/ZHkvM
