When in Rome…see the Etruscans?! Super fun to work with the fabulous @profaliceroberts.bsky.social and sparkmedia.tv discovering the Etruscans for Roman Empire by Train! Terrific site visit with Jamie Aprile, Colleen & Davide Zori, AC Gibbs & the San Giuliano team!

Reconstruction in progress - all the work 'behind the scenes' after the excavation! An Etruscan blackware pot and a horse tooth in the post-ex labs at San Giuliano Archaeological Project! Thanks to ceramic specialist @jerolynmorrison.bsky.social for the fab lab tour www.sgarp.org/excavations
Intriguing discoveries - thanks for sharing Alice! Weapons and ‘warrior burials’ are fascinating aren’t they? Removing all that metal from circulation? And how do we know if the deceased was a warrior or honoured for another status? A battered sword but also a battered skeleton - parry fractures…?

Really sad to read about the passing of the fabulous Mike Corbishley in the Feb 2026 British Archaeology Magazine. I was one of Mike’s first Archaeology and Education MA students in 2003 - he was an enormous inspiration and infectiously enthusiastic. He is missed @archaeologyuk.bsky.social
