A chance to thank @DrIainBanks for all the graft he puts in as editor of @JofConflictArch which continues to be an essential shop window for conflict archaeology. Also to @UofGlasgow for supporting open access publishing in it - knowing people are reading your work means so much
Just a heads up that my esteemed colleague and pal, @ProfTonyPollard, has published a great paper on the aftermath of the Battle of Waterloo in the @JofConflictArch. Brilliant paper, well worth reading, and open access too! https://t.co/rbq4ENYQ51
