Eco de Pedra: A Memória Gravada de Bourgade
@katesfwriter.bsky.socialOct 16, 2026, 6:48 PM

A dream visit to #GrimesGraves, prehistoric flint mines, at Lynford, near Thetford. Fascinating exhibition plus an opportunity to descend into a flint mine with a brilliant audiovisual.
From about 2650 BCE, this site is breathtaking.
📷 2,3,4 are mine, 1 English Heritage.

Rome built nearly 300,000 km of roads. Archaeologists know exactly where only about 3% of them ran.

A knockout archaeological discovery! 🥊

Rare Roman leather boxing gloves used for sparring, so remarkably preserved that a boxer’s knuckle imprint is still visible in the smaller glove!

Excavated in 2017 from the cavalry barracks at Vindolanda, near Hadrian’s Wall 📷 by me

My photo shows a white mannequin, upper torso only, with raised arms wearing Roman dark-brown leather sparring gloves which fit over the knuckles rather than the entire hand. Both arms are bent at the elbow and raised in a boxing stance, with one fist held high in front of the face and the other lower, in front of the chest. The ancient leather sparring gloves were excavated in 2017 at Vindolanda Roman fort, and are displayed in a glass case at the onsite museum. Here is the information from the museum signage: These two unassuming but remarkable objects have been identified as a sparring or practise form of caestus, ancient boxing 'gloves' depicted on mosaics and sculptures for the Roman period. These gloves were cut from a single piece of leather and folded into a 'pouch' configuration tapering to extending leather 'arms' which were slotted into one another forming an oval shape with inner hole into which a hand can still be easily inserted. The pouch of the larger glove is stuffed with shock absorbing grasses and bracken while the smaller glove has an insert of hard coiled leather. Both gloves have a flattened lower edge forming a hard ridge of leather acting as a blade designed to cause damage to an opponent. The gloves were probably owned by a soldier who took part in Roman army fitness, practice and competition activities.

A beautifully decorated Maya plate.

Fascinating and mysterious design.

Today at the CVA colloquium in Munich, Marco Weppelmann-Akyildiz and I talked about RTI on Attic vases from Cologne. My short report covers processual seeing, 3D, paradata and the future of vase research:

A 75,000-year-old Neanderthal skeleton found in Kurdistan bears a fatal wound that researchers believe may have been caused by a wooden spear. This could be the earliest evidence of lethal wooden-spear use in the prehistoric Middle East.

Lidar of the #Maya city of Valeriana. Located in the dense jungle of Campeche, Mexico, it suggests the central Maya Lowlands were urbanised and densely settled despite the difficult environment.
