There is, as usual, a stack of things to do today... before I leave for London tomorrow. I can't believe it is tomorrow already. Good thing that my presentation was finished before I left for Tannenberg (well, apart from that one last picture I have to scan and place today, and from going through it once more to make sure I will stay in time.) Somehow, this year, the autumn is chock full of things to do and of dates to keep. Yesterday was thus incredibly busy, and today will be no less so. At least life won't be boring anytime soon!
While I am refilling my travel necessaire and packing the things for the demonstration bits of my presentation, you can amuse yourselves with some links.
For example the
snark about the media treatment of a grave at Powered by Osteons.
The British Library has an interesting post about
whether to wear white gloves or not.
Doug is doing a
series about crowdfunding archaeology.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is offering fellowships; information and the possibility to apply for a fellowship
are on this page.
Finally, an
excerpt from The Art and Craft of Natural Dyeing: Traditional Recipes for Modern Use by J.N. Liles about dyeing on fermentation vats.
