The non-profit I run that excavates historic Romany Gypsy sites to teach present-day Romany people archaeology skills could do with a few more pro archaeologists for 16th - 22nd in the New Forest! Can pay a decent wage though accommodation is down to you, so local is better!

For #FindsFriday possibly the first pilgrim badge from Poland documented @findsorguk from the UK! During data collection for #MeRit, this Virgin and Child badge has been attributed to Góra Chełmska, near Koszalin. Such badges previously known as far west as the Zeeland coast, NL.

Late medieval strap-ends with moulded St Christopher (and Christ Child) are often found broken and incomplete. But, tantalisingly, sometimes the religious figures seem to have been extracted deliberately for use as amuletic figurines. #MedRit Images @findsorguk #FindsFriday
