1) A truly incredible artefact - This portable bronze writing case was found in an elite male burial in Thessaloniki, dating to around 350 BC. The fold-up case consists of two hinged half-cylinders with lidded compartments and a built-in inkwell.

Thinking about lost ancient writing on perishables, an article on a female from Deir el-Medina, tattooed with words and imagery associated with service to Hathor. Also a lotus on the lower back... and here we thought it was a Y2k thing 😂 journals.openedition.org/bifao/296
A lovely blogpost by Tom Palaima occasioned by the @SusanLupack + co. exhibition on Kober, Linear B and decipherment sites.utexas.edu/scripts/2022/1…
My article on "Learning to spell in Linear B", written while at @CaiusCollege and @BSAthens, has been out for a while on FirstView but is now officially published in CCJ! Available open access doi.org/10.1017/S17502… and in print in CCJ 68 @CUPAcademic #AncMedTwitter #Classics
Next year we'll be launching a funded competition for Visiting Fellowships at the VIEWS project. In the meantime, anyone who has funding for a visit (or can apply for funding from an external source) is very welcome to get in touch. More information here: viewsproject.wordpress.com/visiting-fello…
A great blog post by @SusanLupack about how the Linear B exhibit on decipherment and the many documents related to Alice Kober made their way to Maquarie University. Also includes a link to an unboxing video... sites.utexas.edu/scripts/2022/1…

Very proud to announce that the Incunabula Library has acquired the Jelling Runestone. It's simply spectacular, albeit a little smaller in the flesh than I had imagined.
The Tibetan tabletop is finished—just waiting for the legs. That Bastogne walnut is different every way you look at it…. The text reads "Graceful Kindness" twice in Tibetan calligraphy by the master Tashi Mannox.

23. Along the right side, three larger characters stand out. These look much like the runes f, u and þ – the first three runes of the futhark. This would then be the earliest known attempt to inscribe part of the runic alphabet.

Interview didn't pan out and it's looking unlikely I'm going to get another academic job. Which is a shame but there are also plenty of aspects of it I won't miss. I just wish I had a better idea of what I could do instead.

Aegean people, what are your favourite publications on Minoan and Mycenaean religion / religious change? Just pondering something and trying to decide where best to start.
So pleased to have contributed (at 4am!) a Linear B paper to this AIA 2023 Workshop 'Outside the Network: Non-Elite and 'Other' in the Aegean Bronze Age' - great to focus our thinking in this direction. Thanks Senta and Anna! @AncientHistMQ @PASParchives @Archaeology_MQ
It’s been a mystery why Roman concrete often lasted thousands of years, but ours decays in mere decades. Turns out they incorporated chemicals in a process that induces self-healing; scientists at MIT just figured this all out - in 2022. Extraordinary. news.mit.edu/2023/roman-con…
@KS_Archaeology Yes! I love it! These portable braziers/stoves were used a lot in Greek houses - rather than hearths (which is not what people usually expect). See Tsakirgis, B., 2007. "Fire and Smoke: Hearths, Braziers and Chimneys in the Greek House," BSA 15, 225-231. (Image from this article)
