This looks brilliant! What a great exercise.

We will be exploring the practicalities of conceptualising and setting up a major project in Classics and Archaeology, and how one goes about funding something at large scale.

Which is fascinating for all sorts of other reasons! That wine could be replaced with ale in religious ritual is extremely interesting… and makes me wonder about possibilities in much earlier periods where certain communities/regions might not have had access to a desirable ritual type of wine

Fantastic read, Simon, thanks! Really interesting to think about persistence of wine coming from the Med post-late antiquity, still as a daily or status drink that far north.

Looking forward to seeing you in the @ics.bsky.social sometime, Liv! And welcome back!

🎉👏👏👏 very well deserved!

Gosh, far too kind!! I really am looking forward to your thoughts. Yes, well, taste tests are a must!

Should’ve tried wine or olive oil instead, Sarah! Much more pleasant. 😂

Have a wonderfully productive and nostalgic trip! See you on the other side.

I’ve just realised that I can’t access your DM! If that PDF is still of interest, send me an email: emlyn.dodd [at]sas.ac.uk

Ohh it turned out good!!

Ohh excellent! I assume this was Kat? I hope the book is of interest!
We also just published an updated overview of Roman winemaking and vine-growing across the entire Mediterranean (though slightly more expensive, so let me know if you’d like a PDF!): www.peeters-leuven.be/detail.php?s...

Great to be working again with a superstar team of @stephenkay.bsky.social, @levine.bsky.social + Sara Fabbri via another @ics.bsky.social / @bsrome.bsky.social / Copenhagen collaboration.

Thanks to expert team of @stephenkay.bsky.social @levine.bsky.social, Elena Pomar & Chris Whittaker, w/ support of Ephoreia and Greek Ministry of Culture, along with @bsrome.bsky.social & AAIA.

Overtourism & rapid building development already threaten #cultural #heritage sites & landscapes on Paros. We encourage this approach to be applied more widely for efficient documentation of these areas before too late, sharing data w/ Ministry colleagues to inform site preservation & protection.

So glad to see this out! 👏 brava Marchella! Very happy to have played just a small role in making this happen, and thank YOU for taking on the challenge!

Thanks team!
