@hugowhymark.bsky.socialI love this view of the entrance to the Iron Age hillfort on Wittenham Clumps. It's a timeless place and looked the same in 2003 when I excavated a few trenches on the hill. I must go back soon!

@hugowhymark.bsky.social@hugowhymark.bsky.socialDigging in the 1978-81 Links of Noltland archive I found this fabulous team photo. I can spot David Clarke, Niall Sharples, Caroline Wickham Jones and Ann Clarke. Can anyone name others?
@hugowhymark.bsky.socialHi Becca, come and see the Museum and I'll show you the Collections Centre too!
@hugowhymark.bsky.socialYes... 4 tons! 200 boxes of artefacts and ecofacts
@hugowhymark.bsky.socialHow exciting! The immense Mesolithic assemblage from Sir Paul Mellar's 1970s excavations on the Oronsay shell middens arrived at NMS today!
