V interesting case.

Really pleased to see this from @urbanprehisto and @GordonJBarclay . Important reading. I hadn't realised just how difficult it had been for them to make an appropriate response. The actions of the Journal need some explanation.

What is so threatening about the Archaeology Dept. at @sheffielduni that they are being reviewed with 2 options for cuts? Well-done archaeology makes a better society. #SaveSheffieldArchaeology

I did an MSc in Sheffield Uni Archaeology Dept in late '80s. It broke my brain & broadened my horizons. Still today I am only realising the meaning of some of what we learned. The review of the dept's future is ill-conceived. #savesheffieldarchaeology sites.google.com/view/save-shef…

For the last few years, @artfletch has been doing guerilla photogrammetry on the foreshore and at historic sites across London. Get lost in the dozens of 3D models on his SketchFab account! #ForeshoreFavourites Here's his Thames foreshore collection: sketchfab.com/artfletch/coll…
