The view from Fassuah Ridge Fort, a previously unknown military position used by the Ottomans/Germans.
I usually follow back, & really appreciate boosts. Thanks.

Fragment from an enemy aircraft. Shot down by wing commander Harbourne Mackay. The Nazi “swastika” symbol painted on the fin was cut out and kept as an obvious symbol of the enemy. The hole caused by machine gun fire would have added to the symbolic slur of this “souvenir”

It is #ThrowbackThursday ! #Presentation 2.0.
Today, 4 years ago, my first #excavation began, at the age of 29 years old, when usually the first #archaeological experience is at the age of 19. At #Vindolanda I had the opportunity to meet wonderful people of a huge range of ages. All of them had in common the same passion, the study of #history and #archaeology
It is never too late to pursue your dreams.

The origins of #conflictarchaeology
Over the last two decades conflict archaeology has developed from #Historic #archaeology to include multiple elements in the fields of #anthropology and #archeology
Early efforts include 1842 surveys of the English #CivilWar site of #Naseby, and 1950s examination of the Portuguese battle of #Aljubarrota (1385)

Battlefield landscapes are an important part of the cultural #heritage and identity of today's society. #Battlefield preservation enables current and future generations to better understand the impact and horrors of #war.

How are #archaeological studies carried out on #battlefields ?
Untransformed spaces where a large #combat took place in the past, are likely to preserve #materiality associated with the #battle that took place there. Through metal surveys, material recovery, georeferences and #GIS spatial analysis we can shed light on the #historical event that really happen

Why is materiality important?
In #archaeology it is an approach studying past human societies through their material remains. Materiality is the proof of human behaviours. Also, the reminder of the most awful activities.
Archaeology is key in building democratic societies.
