Wat achtergrond van mijn onderzoek. Gisteren gaf ik een jeugdcollege over vervloekingen in #Heerlen. Dit komt voort uit mijn onderzoek naar de verspreiding van Latijn binnen het @LatinNowERC project Daar deed ik onderzoek naar #meertaligheid in #Spanje en #Portugal in de Oudheid

C'était un grand plaisir de faire une présentation au Collège de France. « Le pouvoir du langage et les langages de pouvoir : la diffusion du langage dans le contexte de l’Empire romain et de la mondialisation ». Merci @Inrap de m'avoir invitée.

I can't get my head around this. Trees are awesome and this centuries-old one was particularly wonderful and meant a lot to so many.

La France 🇫🇷 se félicite de l’inscription de la Maison Carrée de @Nimes sur la liste du #patrimoinemondial de l’@UNESCO 🇺🇳 et adresse ses remerciements aux membres du Comité pour la reconnaissance de la valeur universelle exceptionnelle de ce bien ! #MaisonCarrée #Nimes

@duxBritanniarum @W_Epigraphy @pete_savin @ClassicsNCL @Wall_CAP @VindolandaTrust Thanks v much for checking! @Sarcanon reported the same from his visit. Not sure at all where this one is🤷‍♀️

@LatinNowERC @W_Epigraphy @pete_savin @ClassicsNCL @Wall_CAP @VindolandaTrust I've had a quick check of my pics of stones in the summerhouse at Castlesteads. I did jot see it amongst that collection

Does anyone know where RIB 1984 currently is? It's the Castlesteads altar dedicated to IOM&genius loci. We're hunting for a colour image for RIB Online. Thank you! @duxBritanniarum @W_Epigraphy @pete_savin @ClassicsNCL @Wall_CAP @VindolandaTrust romaninscriptionsofbritain.org/inscriptions/1…
