Being a Christian and an archaeologist: it’s not all that contradictory. It’s a bit of a stereotype to think so. But to me, they go hand in hand! And both influence my research interests and decisions. Always happy to talk about it! #archaeology #Christianity #phdlife

Discovered a new referencing management system. It's called, doing it all manually because you're a luddite

Out on a day fieldwork today! Visited the Colony at Bennachie and now on my way to my own research area to better understand past and current land use!
We did get stuck in a blizzard but now we’re in sunny Finzean ☀️☃️

🚨Glossary alert! Soil properties play a crucial role in determining soil health by influencing water availability, nutrient supply, microbial activity, and structure. 🌱 Do you know what soil properties are? 🤔
