(1/11) I am very happy to announce that I have been awarded a European Research Council ‘Consolidator Grant’. The TerraForm project (‘The Rise and Fall of Maltese Terraced Landscapes’) will begin in the spring of 2025.

In this comment piece with James Fellows Yates | @[email protected] and Christina Warinner, we highlight the mounting problems with data archiving and metadata reporting in ancient DNA research. The field cannot afford to keep neglecting this issue. nature.com/articles/d4158…

I will be advertising soon for postdoc positions in geoarchaeology and GIS for my Terraform ERC project, starting at the University of Malta in a few months. More information soon, but message me if interested.

👏👏 @arevsumer! Contains our IBD analysis led by Yilei Huang: Multiple really long 20cm++ IBD segments link the two record 45ky-old sequenced modern human sites Zlatý kůň (Czechia) and Ranis (Germany). Showing they are closely related - within few generations. 😮😮 (1/3)

NEW Analysis of over 3000 human bones from Charterhouse Warren, England, indicates they were massacred, butchered, and likely partly consumed by enemies as a means to dehumanise them, questioning the idea that Early Bronze Age Britain was peaceful. #AntiquityThread 1/18 🧵

Kicking off the new year, our paper by Leo Speidel et al. is out describing what to me is a breakthrough in ancient genomics. By using genealogies to study ancestry we can get much more resolution to study finer-scale history. We call this method Twigstats.

Very happy to share the results of my Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions project done at UCL Genetics Institute with Mark Thomas and Pontus Skoglund from The Francis Crick Institute. We used ancient DNA to reveal remarkably high genetic diversity in the region of modern-day Ukraine / Україна over the last 3,500 years until ~500 years ago.

Our new paper is out! Congrats to the whole team, especially the staff and students Bournemouth Uni who have been excavating this incredible site for 15 years (with much more left to uncover!) Widespread matrilocality in Iron Age Britain - Up Na Mná :) rdcu.be/d6mb0
