It was great to participate, learn, and share during the Mediterranean Antiquities Provenance Research Alliance (MAPRA) Workshop in Nashville last week.

@TheEES @MiamiOHArtMuseu Thanks @TheEES for sharing and assistance in providing access to archives to connect these fragments @MiamiOHArtMuseu with their archaeological context #provenanceresearch #museums #collections

A recent blog by @jdmgreen traces relief fragments at @MiamiOHArtMuseu to their original provenance at the entrance hall of the Maru-Aten in Amarna, their discovery during @TheEES excavations and subsequent journey across US institutions. Read now: sites.miamioh.edu/art-museum/202…

@uroshmatic @felixhoeflmayer @BarbaraHorejs @oeai_oeaw @oeaw Thanks for the shout out for the book “Perfect Journey”. It may or may not be Tewfiq Saleh with the dining room telephone, but I don’t think it was Mohammed Osman Al-Kreti (different appearance).

@felixhoeflmayer @BarbaraHorejs @oeai_oeaw @oeaw Who is the person on the phone on one of the photos from 1930s?

A stunning discovery at the Red Sea port of Berenike in #Egypt: a #Buddha statue was found in the forecourt of the Isis temple (early Roman period), attesting to the intercultural connections along sea trade routes between India & Roman Egypt. #archaeology english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContent/9/…

Gil Stein expresses hope for preserving Afghanistan’s cultural heritage, amidst threats from ongoing development, looting of archaeological sites, and museum collections in storage. #CulturalHeritage #Preservation rferl.org/a/afghanistan-….

Major challenges for a Midwest university art museum facing deaccessioning of important artworks. I hope this proposal, which goes against numerous ethics standards and codes, will be reversed. #museums #deaccessioning #artmuseum

Great day here in Oxford, OH. A naming ceremony and major gift to support renovation and expansion of the Richard and Carole Cocks Art Museum @miamiuniversity. Thanks to our team, members and supporters, especially Richard and Carole for making this possible! #artmuseum

I am sorry to hear of Oscar White Muscarella's death on November 27 at the age of 91. His The Lie Became Great: The Forgery of Ancient Near Eastern Cultures (2000), was quite inspirational. I will never look at Luristan Bronzes without questioning their authenticity.

when i began to look into dealers who smuggled & sold cuneiform tablets to the British Museum from #Iraq in 19th c., i found that many women led this trade in #Baghdad. who were they, & why did they get into this? a few answers survive in their letters👇 asor.org/anetoday/2022/…

I have been watching this and my conclusion is that Graham Hancock has made a lot of money by deluding people with his way out ideas. There’s no conspiracy from academics, who just need to do a better job sharing the wonders of prehistory with the public.

So happy that we received news of our reaccreditation to @AAMers! Anyone who has been through this process knows how much work goes into it. Thanks to everyone who helped make it happen! #museums #community #excellence
