@jenbaird.bsky.socialAuthor copy week for OUP I guess, my postie is not impressed with the chonky volumes arriving.
@jenbaird.bsky.socialFor too long, the people who have done the real work of archaeology have not been recognised. At Dura-Europos in Syria, one of the ways this is evident is in the lack of credit given, or even names recorded, for the many workers there.
@jenbaird.bsky.socialNext week, at the site, we will launch a project to support Syrian names and voices being more present in the archive. facesofdura.org
@jenbaird.bsky.socialWhat is the long-term legacy of foreign excavations in places like Dura-Europos in Syria?
Out today and open access in @antiquity.ac.uk with my colleague Adnan Almohamad: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
