All hail Flint Dibble @flintdibble taking on pseudoscience. Archaeology owes him one. theguardian.com/commentisfre…
Lost civilisations make good TV, but archaeology’s real stories hold far more wonder | Flint Dibble

I took on a pseudoscientist because misinformation about history too often goes unchallenged

YAY! Thank you! Humbled that we now have 45K subscribers on YouTube. At the same time, we're aware that in YouTube terms, 45K is quite a humble number. Onward and upward! 50K? 100K? youtube.com/c/theprehistoryg…

Just finished recording @PrehistoryGuys latest Patreon exclusive podcast. The 'Monday Moot' they're called and we make a new one every week. Today, we've been talking about the role of myth in archaeology.

A bit late but in case you miss it & have an interest in prehistoric Britain, the August National Geographic has a #Stonehenge cover story, catching up on recent research & with some good artwork (construction is pretty much an illustration of How to Build Stonehenge)

No - that isn't @RupertSoskin and I. However, violence and conflict in the unrecorded past is rarely talked about because - well - it's unrecorded! There's plenty of evidence of man's inhumanity to man in the archaeological record. youtu.be/owjjt-oVaKM

I knew Poulnabrone was among the oldest but I'm reading it is THE oldest dated megalithic monument in Ireland. I thought the stuff in Carrowmore cemetary was older? (Even allowing for controversial very early dates)
