I have no way to get in touch with Keanu Reeves I invite him to have a frank conversation with me about archaeology I believe that after a chat, where I answer his questions & show him how archaeology works, I could convince him real archaeology is better than this fake stuff

Hugely grateful to Keanu Reeves. To stand by me in so public a way risks the hatred of archaeologist zealots who believe that only they have the right to interpret the past and who leverage the media to vilify alternative voices. Season 2 launches 16 Oct. deadline.com/2024/09/ancient…

The moment I’ve dreamed of for years is here: my first-ever book is out with @BloomsburyBooks today. What does the return of #WildBoar to the UK mean for our landscapes, our other wildlife, and us – and how do the boar live their lives? All is revealed in GROUNDBREAKERS. 🧵

95% van onze 18 miljoen inwoners gaat in het wild geen #wolf zien en 99% zal nooit schade ondervinden. Waarom dan zo’n groot onderwerp in onze maatschappij. Waarom gaat het niet over veel belangrijker zaken die ons allemaal raken? Energie kosten en klimaat bijvoorbeeld.

Probably my new favorite part of this whole “let’s send hominin remains to space” thing is that @NatGeo published an article explaining why they did this & it’s behind a paywall and is “premium content” so I can’t even read it through my university library. #paleoanthropology

In the years that I have been writing and thinking about #roadecology, I have seen many animals cross highways: deer, elk, bison, moose, bears, bobcats, turtles. I can very safely say, though, that yesterday was my first wild muskox. #WhenInNome
